The Wimbledon Synagogue, formally the Wimbledon and District Synagogue, is a Reform Jewish congregation and synagogue, located at 1 Queensmere Road, Wimbledon Park, in the Borough of Wandsworth, London, England, in the United Kingdom.
The congregation was established in 1949 and was based at Worple Road, Wimbledon from 1952 to 1997.[2] In 1997 it moved to its present premises, adapting a 1953 university college building which previously belonged to Southlands College,[3] now part of the University of Roehampton. The building also houses a nursery school, a branch of Keren's Nursery.[4] The congregation is a member of the Movement for Reform Judaism and is led by rabbi Adrian Schell.[1] In 2017, the congregation was described in The Jewish Chronicle as particularly welcoming.[5]
