# Jewish Community of Berkshire

The Jewish Community of Berkshire (JCoB) is an Ashkenazi Modern Orthodox Jewish community based in Reading, Berkshire, England.

The community was established in 2015, following an accident when the rabbi injured his knee and was unable to walk to synagogue. Its rabbi is Zvi Solomons, formerly the rabbi of Reading Hebrew Congregation. Synagogue services are held in the rabbi's home, and the community hosts the only Orthodox rabbinic couple (Rabbi Zvi Solomons and Rebbetzen Dr Shira Batya Lewin Solomons) and cheder in Berkshire. JCoB also provides a visiting service to schools in the region to teach Judaism as part of the Religious Education syllabus agreed by their local SACREs.
