Sangha Events
If you’re familiar with the Mindfulness of Breathing and Metta Bhavana practices and are interested in practising in Triratna, just come along! Our sangha events are open to anyone who has done an Intro Course (at any time), or has been attending our introductory classes for a number of months (chat to us if you have any queries!)
We’re keen to develop a culture of generosity and availability to all, so there is no set charge for these sessions – but we’ll invite you to give what you can. We rely on your financial gifts to keep the Centre going. It is because of people’s generosity in the past that we can enjoy the Centre and the Buddha’s teachings today. Do keep this going please do give. We hope you’ll be able to contribute appropriately to the running costs of the centre so more people can benefit and the Sangha can grow. What would help us even more, is rather than donate each time you come along, support the centre with a monthly direct debit – please give generously!

Sangha Works
Work as practice. Join us on Wednesdays from 3pm-5pm to work together and explore a different way of practising.
Inclusivity and Access
We are working to make our centre as welcoming as possible to everyone. It can also sometimes be useful to practice in a context with people who have had similar experiences within society. If you think this might apply to you… then do take a look!
