Retreats
Take time out from your everyday life for a deeper experience of yourself and others.
Once or twice a year, we go on retreat together in the countryside. It's opportunity to make real strides in our lives, practice and friendships.
Our next retreat is 15–17 August 2025 at Rivendell Buddhist Retreat Centre, East Sussex. Booking details will be announced nearer the time – watch this space!
