We are opening Booking for our wonderful Weekend retreat.

The Bright Qualities of the Buddhas

Water drops fill a water jar drop by drop…

Gradually are the bright qualities fulfilled in the Buddhas.

Join us for a transformative weekend retreat, building faith and confidence in the Buddha’s teachings and your own journey to freedom. Immerse yourself in the wisdom of the early Buddhist Sangha through inspiring stories, verses and teachings from the monks and nuns of the Buddha’s time. Enjoy meditation, ritual, and the warmth of a supportive community as you deepen your practice and connection. A Sangha weekend is a time of joy, friendship, and shared growth—an opportunity to cultivate inner peace and strength on your path to freedom.

The weekend retreats are a lovely thing to do and place to be: to practice meditation together, be inspired by talks, and have time to discuss what this means to you. The retreat is fully inclusive of vegetarian/ vegan food, and accomodation. It's set in the beautiful countryside near Bolton Abbey. 

When purchasing a place we are asking for a deposit. This covers the basic cost of the retreat. On this for and at the end of the retreat we will ask if you would like to donate to the centre, in turn we can offer some support to those who may not be able to afford the deposit - and if you can do this with gift aid. These donations also cover any shortfall that can occur sometimes, or are used to keep the centre running into the future for the benefit of others.

(Please note that your data will be shared with the retreat organisers.  It will only be used to organise this event).
