70th Birthday Celebration - Raising Money For Beit Halochem

Dear Friends,

To mark our joint 70th birthday, rather than just focusing on personal celebrations and reflecting on the many good things life has given us over the years, we would like to share this milestone by supporting Beit Halochem.

Beit Halochem UK is a charity which is devoted to raising awareness and funds for the Beit Halochem centres in Israel which provide rehabilitative services and life long care for disabled veterans of the Israeli Defence Forces along with victims of terror and their families.

In the wake of the devastating events that transpired on October 7th 2023, the subsequent military operations have left Beit Halochem facing a critical situation. Currently, they are confronted with the pressing needs of over 11,400 newly injured soldiers and victims of terror. The toll of injured soldiers since the ground forces entered Gaza is a stark reminder of the ongoing challenges. These numbers continue to rise daily.

The 62,400+ Beit Halochem members (IDF Veterans and Victims of Terror) are given a new lease of life at Beit Halochem's four rehabilitation centres based in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Haifa and Beer Sheva. They remain members of the organisation for the rest of their lives. The Beit Halochem centres provide a blend of exceptional rehabilitative services including physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and chiropractic treatments conducted alongside social and specialised sport options, educational programmes and a vast range of creative activities.

Each centre offers a wide choice of physical and social activities, housing an auditorium, multipurpose gymnasium, classrooms, fitness rooms, occupational and physical therapy units, trauma therapy units, a cafeteria, offices and a social wing.
