A house-to-house campaign is scheduled for Sunday, with Jewish householders receiving questionnaires on Hebrew knowledge and education.
A public meeting in the Shoreditch Town Hall, a Jewish youth mass meeting at Woburn House, a special women’s meeting, an exhibition of modern Hebrew books and an entertainment for Jewish children are among other features on the week’s slate of events.
