Bonny Feldman is the editor of the Cape Jewish Chronicle. The team comprises digital coordinator and layout Lisa Shapiro and advertising Adéle Gradner.
The Cape Jewish Chronicle was established in November 1984, with Irma Chait holding the position of editor for 26 years. Irma retired at the end of 2010 and was succeeded by Tali Feinberg (2011-2014), Lindy Diamond (2015- April 2021) and Desrae Saacks (May 2021-April 2023).
The Cape Jewish Chronicle is a monthly print and digital publication that focuses on the Cape Town Jewish Community. The print edition arrives in most Jewish homes in the city in the first week of every month. The website is updated when the print edition goes to post. A voluntary subscription of R450 per year is requested to help cover costs.
The Chronicle includes local organisational and social news (including family announcements and photographs of simchas), editorial material, commentary on local and international issues and stories of interest. Advertising includes both commercial and classifieds.
