Thames Valley Day Limmud is on Sunday 10th October 2010. Registration opens at 9am with programmes running from 10am to 6.30pm.

It offers participants from all walks of life, all backgrounds, all lifestyles, and all ages a unique opportunity to connect with all things Jewish. This is a chance to learn, to be inspired and meet and study with Jews from diverse backgrounds in a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the Thames Valley.

A stimulating day-long learning event in Limmud's unique style. You will have the opportunity during the day to experience Chavruta – learning Talmud like a student Rabbi (no previous knowledge necessary) – and also enjoy participating in a wide range of text-based, cultural, artistic and philosophical sessions run by experienced presenters – in fact something to please everyone.

• Joel Schalit, author of Israel vs. Utopia
  
• International recording artist Tally Koren to perform
