A sangha meeting will feature Buddhist meditation, talks, discussion and ritual as well as chance to catch up with each other and make friends over a cup of tea.

Additionally we also run regular monthly Women's Group meetings.
From time to time we have sangha days and weekend retreats where all our three groups have the opportunity to practice together in person for longer periods and go deeper.

Meditation
There are many things in life that are beyond our control. However, it is possible to take responsibility for our own states of mind through the practice of meditation – and to change them for the better. According to Buddhism this is the most important thing we can do, and Buddhism teaches that we can achieve this through meditation. It is the only real antidote to our own personal sorrows, and to the anxieties, fears, hatreds, and general confusions that beset the human condition.​
