The Mikvah

The Pearls Mikvah has been newly-refurbished to a high 5 star standard. The refurbishment was funded by the Leeds Jewish Community ranging from contributions from all three Orthodox Shuls, a communal 'sponsor-a-tile' campaign, coffe-morning, car-boot sale and other fund-raising initiatives.

FAQ

Using the Mikvah on Shabbat or Yom Tov.

All preparations are done at home, before the start of Shabbat or Yom Tov and one simply visits the Mikvah to perform the actual dip on the correct evening.

Can I choose my Attendant?

If you would prefer to use the Mikvah with a particular attendant or your teacher, feel free to contact her and she will do her best to accommodate you.

How can I find out what checks I need to do before going to the Mikvah?

You can click on this link or call your teacher who will be happy to go through the details with you on the phone or face-to-face.

What do I need to bring when I visit the Mikvah?

That's up to you. You will be supplied with towels and there are basic supplies in each bathroom. If you are doing your preparations at the Mikvah, you may want to bring your own toiletries, a list of which can be found here. If you have done your preparations at home, you will need to shower and comb your hair, so you should bring the supplies needed for that.
