People travelled from across the North West to a synagogue in Liverpool to celebrate freedom.
From Chorley, Chester, Wirral and Manchester, they joined members of Liverpool's Jewish community in Wavertree's Reform Synagogue for a communal Seder this week. The hours-long, stage-managed meal is served at the start of Passover, one of the most widely celebrated Jewish festivals, this year running from April 5 to April 13.
Warren Elf, a Bury-based rabbi who's served the congregation for the last seven years, said: "It's still one of the most important of the festivals. It's a festival of freedom, a reminder that our ancestors were slaves supposedly for 400 years in Egypt.
