História biográfica

The Jewish Friendship Club Movement began in 1950, after the United Synagogue's Welfare Committee invited the League of Jewish Women to act as an advisory body to the new movement. It remains under the auspices of these two bodies. Its aim was to provide elderly Jewish men and women (who were over 60 years of age), with social and recreational centres. From 1951 the movement became known as the Friendship Clubs' Central Committee. Its first chairman was Mrs MW Domb. Its name was changed again to the Friendship Clubs' Central Council in 1958, and attained its final title, the Association of Jewish Friendship Clubs, around 1964.
