History

Founded in 1961, the congregation was previously known as Southgate and District Reform Synagogue until 19 May 2010. Between 1963 and c. 1981, the congregation worshiped from a former school building located at Queens Avenue, Green Lanes, in Winchmore Hill. It moved to a former warehouse, located at 45 High Street, in Southgate, until it acquired the Whetstone building in 1999.[2]
