West Central Liberal Synagogue was a Liberal Jewish community and synagogue, located in Bloomsbury in the Borough of Camden, London, England, in the United Kingdom.

The congregation was founded by Lily Montagu in 1928 (although it could trace its roots to services she held in the 1890s) and it had held services at The Montagu Centre since 1954.[1]

The synagogue's last rabbi, until its closure in 2022, was Jackie Tabick.
