Welcome to our website! Enjoy browsing and we hope you get in touch and come along to our events, most of which are held at the Liberal Jewish Synagogue (LJS), in St John's Wood, London. We have a new logo and have changed our name to Jewish LGBT+ Group.
The Jewish Gay and Lesbian Group (JGLG) was founded in 1972 when a small advert in Gay News attracted the astonishing total of 190 people to a public meeting called to set up the new organisation. Since then the Group has gone from strength to strength and we held a wonderful event to celebrate our 44th anniversary in 2016.
We are the longest established Jewish LGBT group in the world. Our membership is open to Jewish men and women who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender including people from many different backgrounds. We welcome non-Jewish partners to all events and non-LGBT & non-Jewish guests to certain events, and although the group is based in London we have many members living across the country. We are primarily a social rather than religious group, and most of our religious events tend to follow Progressive/Reform traditions, although we have members from all branches of Judaism.

Loans For People on Benefits
Many people in the Jewish LGBT community need a loan whilst receiving benefits. Wage Day Advance can provide a benefits loan within 60 minutes. With a high approval rate Wage Day Advance are specifically set up to help you with a loan today.
We are affiliated to the World Congress of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Jews and work collaboratively with other organisations to ensure a breadth of opportunities for the Jewish LGBT community.
Why a Jewish Gay and Lesbian Group? Because Jews and LGBT are minority groups it is important that there is space for us to come together to celebrate.
Why is the group so successful? Probably because we offer a relaxed and supportive environment for all ages, where the Jewish LGBT community has the opportunity to meet and socialise with likeminded people. It can be reassuring to meet people with similar shared experiences.
We hope you will look upon JGLG as an alternative family for Jewish lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgender, their lovers, friends and relations, and look forward to welcoming you to our events.
