Edinburgh Jewish Cultural Centre – Lee Wax, Jewish Women’s Aid 7.30 pm – In person and online

9th December 2021

£10

Domestic abuse thrives on closed doors, secrecy and isolation, and the COVID pandemic has created conditions that can put women at much greater risk. This session will show a snapshot of domestic abuse in the Jewish community, show you what might be happening behind closed doors under normal circumstances, how COVID is making that so much worse, what clues you might get that it’s happening and what Jewish Women’s Aid does in the community for women survivors of domestic and sexual violence. It will also look at what you can do to help women access the support they need.

Lee Wax is currently Training Coordinator at Jewish Women’s Aid, having worked for JWA for 10 years in a variety of roles. She gives talks in the Jewish community, and trains Rabbis and other communal professionals in how best to support women survivors of domestic and sexual violence. When not at JWA, she is a freelance rabbi, educator, and trainer. She lives in London.

In person tickets £10. This includes a £5 donation to Jewish Women’s Aid.
Online tickets £5. This fee will be donated to Jewish Women’s Aid.
