Brighton & Hove Jewish Welfare Board

Caring for Jewish people in need.

The Brighton & Hove Jewish Welfare Board (registered charity no. 255060) was established in 1846 and, since that time, has been providing financial assistance to Jewish people living in Sussex.


Our aims are to alleviate hardship and deprivation by, for example:


  • Providing financial help, usually in the form of a quarterly grant.
  • One off payments.
  • Benefits in kind, usually in the form of food, furniture, television sets etc.
  • The provision of matzot and ‘gelt’ at Pesach and Chanukah.
  • Subsidised admission to the day centre facilities for the elderly at Ralli Hall Jewish Community Centre, Hove.
  • Recuperative holidays.


If you or someone you know is in genuine need and would benefit from our help, please contact us. Please be assured that all information will be treated in the strictest confidence.
