The basic message of Buddhism is simple:
- we can’t depend on anything to be permanent
- our actions have consequences
- we can change for the better
- Buddhism speaks to all kinds of people regardless of their gender, gender identity, race, sexuality or nationality.
We present a range of classes, seminars and retreats and for beginners and experienced practitioners alike, offering the opportunity to expand your understanding of Buddhism, its principles and practices.

A day on empathy, the theme of Shantigarbha's recent book, I'll Meet You There: a practical guide to empathy, mindfulness and communication published by Windhorse Publications. Shantigarbha shows how we connect with each other in the space that opens up when we let go of our ideas of good and bad, right and wrong.

Compassion and Emptiness For Order Members and Mitra of the Triratna Buddhist Community Benevolence - metta - and compassion, as taught by the Buddha, are essentially boundless liberations of the mind.
