Visiting over Shabbat?
At Giffnock Shul we are a very warm and welcoming community and always try to accommodate visitors with home hospitality. We are also a small community and therefore we are limited with how many people there are available to welcome visitors. We try our best to find places for meals at Kosher homes so please give us advance notice so that we can try to make your Shabbat an enjoyable one with home hospitality. (Even if you did book a host please confirm the Thursday before).

Supporting Jewish life in Glasgow
Our shul is more than just a house of prayer – it is a lively hub of social, cultural, and educational activity that serves the Jewish community of Giffnock, Newton Mearns, and beyond.
From a well-maintained Mikvah - one of only two in Scotland, to comprehensive Bar/Bat Mitzvah preparation, to our library filled with Jewish texts and resources, our shul is dedicated to serving every aspect of Jewish life.
