An Islington synagogue has been handing out kosher food packages to help Jewish people celebrate religious holidays during the coronavirus lockdown.
The idea came to Rabbi Mendy Korer, 39, of Chabad Islington Synagogue, after he saw it become increasingly difficult for Jewish people to source and observe a Kosher diet during the pandemic when travel became restricted.

Rabbi Korer said: Whilst it might not be a significant amount of food, the community members saw the food packages as a lifesaver.
