Volunteer at a Buddhist Meditation Centre
ReportLocation: Leicester, UK
We're a Buddhist Meditation Centre set in the heart of Leicester city centre in England, only one and a half hours from London. We're close to shops, cafes, gyms, cinemas, yoga studios, parks and a beautiful covered market.We have 2 meditation rooms, modern en-suite bunk bed dorms accommodating up to 4 people per room, but due to the latest COVID-19 measures we will only be sleeping 2 people per room. We also have a World Peace Cafe, host regular meditation classes, meditation courses, and special events promoting the development of inner peace, compassion and wisdom.
We welcome everybody, Buddhist or non-Buddhist.
We are looking for volunteers to help in our World Peace Cafe, cleaning, painting, and office work. There's a mixed age range of residents living here and a thriving community.
