Tonight we're helping make wishes come true! We're listening to the inspirational Kees Veldboer, Director and Founder of the Ambulance Wish Foundation, which helps terminally ill people fulfil their final wish.

Check out our very own Hannah Gerson in the Jewish Chronicle after 18 United Synagogue shuls collected half a tonne of food for London food banks and Jewish families in need. Well done to all involved 👏👏😊

What a wonderful and heartwarming thread!😊 Thank you @RachCreeger for shining a spotlight on the wonderful work of @USChesed. If anyone else would like to get involved just email [email protected] 💪
Dropped a few bags of clothes into the #USChesed project today. This aims to provide dignified support for asylum seekers, families supported by Jewish charities & clients of local food banks, homeless & domestic abuse shelters. The project supports people of all faiths and none.
Thanks so much to our amazing United Synagogue ambulance wish foundation volunteers, Peter Phillips, David Kurash and Saul Gaunt who made this happen.

Left London in the back of this at 5:45am on the way to Wales with a team of @UnitedSynagogue volunteers for @AmbulanceWishUK The mission? They’re going to take a terminally ill man to see his wife, who is in a hospice, for the last time. #peoplearegood #makeyourweekcount
We are delighted that our @UnitedSynagogue volunteers with the @AmbulanceWishUK were able to take part today in such a special wish in Wales, reuniting a special couple.
The moment Derek & Eirwen were re united this morning at the Ty Pentwyn Nursing Home by @UnitedSynagogue volunteers for @AmbulanceWishUK who drove 180 miles to make the 5 min journey happen. The biggest privilege to be able to share this most intimate moment. #thankyou 💕
