Festive Season Opening Times
From Monday 22nd December to Friday 2nd January
Our usual programme has changed for the Festive Season. Below is our special Winter Holiday Programme.
Tuesday 23rd December: A Peaceful Meditation Night. Wednesday this week is Christmas Eve, so we are moving our usual sangha evening to this Tuesday when there will be a relaxing meditation evening from 7pm till 9.15pm with two meditations and the usual tea break at around 8pm. Come for one or both sessions.
This is a beautiful opportunity to get away from all the hustle and bustle of Christmas and spend an evening in quiet meditation - a true antidote to the business of the Festive Season
Wednesday 24th December: A Christmas Oasis of Peace. At midday on Christmas Eve, there will be an unled 30 minute meditation session for regulars. This will be followed by an informal get together from 12.40pm to 2.00pm, when you are invited to bring along vegan treats to share. Doors open at 1145, for a 30 minute meditation (doors locked during the meditation). Come to both, or just the one, it`s up to you!

Tuesday 30th December: 'Getting-Away-From-It-All' Meditation Evening. Wednesday this week is New Year’s Eve, so we are moving our usual sangha evening to Tuesday 30th December. This is a beautiful opportunity to get away from all the hustle and bustle of Christmas and spend an evening in quiet meditation - a true antidote to the business of the Festive Season. 7pm till 9.15pm with two meditations and the usual tea break at around 8pm.
