Celebrating the Jewish East End
Our aim is to increase awareness of the history and culture of London's Jewish East End, to preserve what remains and record what has now gone. Our magazine - The Cable - contains a wealth of articles and photos that will interest all who wish to rediscover the rich history of our immigrant forefathers.
We have organised walks, talks, film shows and more to celebrate the Jewish story.

It is lavishly illustrated in full colour (though many photographs, by virtue of their age, have to be in black and white) and jam-packed with interesting articles, personal reminiscences, and news of events and JEECS activities. Sadly, this is its last issue.
