On 1 January 2026, Liberal and Reform Judaism will officially unite into The Movement for Progressive Judaism (MPJ). This Liberal Judaism website is therefore no longer being updated.

We now have a brand new website for our new Movement at progressivejudaism.org.uk.

The creation of The Movement for Progressive Judaism is a moment in history, a moment when the vision, courage and optimism of so many people have together created something bold, hopeful and essential.

We bring together timeless Jewish tradition with the diversity, creativity and values of 21st century Jewish life. We have synagogues and communities all across the UK and Ireland, each rooted in local identity and strengthened by being part of something larger.

We are proud to bring you new branding and a new website that truly represents and showcases all of this – beginning with a logo that blends the P and J of our initials with the most recognisable of Hebrew letters, the Shin.

MPJ Co-Leads Rabbi Charley Baginsky and Rabbi Josh Levy said: “A Shin is the first letter of shalom, peace, relationship, the repair of the world. The first letter of shalem, wholeness, integrity, becoming complete. And the first letter of shekhinah, the presence of the sacred in our lives. It is the letter placed on our mezuzot, marking every threshold with blessing. And now it marks the beginning of our story together.”

Please visit our new website at progressivejudaism.org.uk.

If you have any feedback, please email media@progressivejudaism.org.uk. Please note that we are refining and adding content to the new website all the time.
