Mavar exists to empower adults from the strictly Orthodox Jewish community in the UK to choose their own path in life, in keeping with their own identity, beliefs and needs. Mavar supports its members (i.e. service users) in their efforts to achieve independence, live authentically and cope with the obstacles they may encounter as they explore options to live, work or study in the wider world.

Mavar's ensures that Charedim who are questioning and are seeking to explore options for their future path in life have access to a professional, impartial and 100% confidential service. Mavar is independent of any faith-based community or organisation. We offer guidance across a range of social, educational, vocational and day-to-day needs to overcome the obstacles and ease the challenges individuals from the Charedi community will inevitably be encounter in the wider world.

We assist without judgement – whether a member intends to leave the Charedi community or just wants to explore options, whether they think of themselves as ‘Off the Derech’, or whether they are simply questioning. Mavar will not encourage a member to change your their of life. All decisions will be their own. But we do help provide them with the information they need to make an informed decision about their future.
