Pinner Synagogue was covered in poppies for Remembrance Shabbat when friends of Sonya Daniels z”l decided to knit poppies in her memory.

Sonya was introduced to poppy knitting by Ruth Simons when she was unwell and sold them for charity.

We were so pleased that Ruth, Jackie Silverstone and Doreen Samuels and many other friends participated in knitting the poppies and then decorating the shul.

We also supported the multi-faith Pinner Act of Remembrance on Sunday morning. Our member, Stan Conway, laid a wreath on behalf of Pinner United Synagogue at the ceremony.
