Gants Hill

The GANTS HILL branch of Jewish Association of Cultural Societies (JACS), meets most Thursdays at the 2a Clarence Avenue, Gants Hill, Essex IG6 2JH from 1.00pm. to 3.30pm.

Due to the Covid pandemic we decided to limit the number of people attending which we will continue. To give as many people as possible the opportunity to enjoy our entertainment we have split the membership into 2 groups and run the same entertainment on two consecutive weeks.

If you are 70ish  more or less, retired or semi-retired, active and ready to extend your circle of friends, interested in broadening your horizons and obtaining some mental stimulation, as well as enjoying a wide range of social interests, then JACS is for you.

We have a range of guest speakers, entertainers, outside visits and individual events connected to the Chagim (festivals).

After the presentation / entertainment we serve tea or coffee and cakes.
 

Branch Chairman: Mrs. Gloria Rones.
