VIDEO – How did you celebrate Passover
this year? No doubt with friends, family an abundance of matzah and a reading of the Haggadah. Of course at the center of the festival is the Seder. And here in London, JN1 has been invited to a Seder with a twist.

Passover is one of the most important festivals in the Jewish calendar. It's a time when Jewish people remember how the children of Israel left slavery behind and were led out of Egypt by Moses.
The Seder or the Order is a special service that takes place the evening before Passover begins. Natalie Shaw, who lives in North London, decided to put on a belated Seder night for her Jewish and non-Jewish friends.
Guests were treated to a selection of Jewish food, and of course the Seder plate.
What's special about this night is that all of Natalie's guests had the chance to share and learn more about Jewish traditions.
