Welcome to
Nottingham Buddhist Centre
The Wisdom and Compassion of the Buddhist Path is needed in the world now more than ever, and our wish is to reach out and share that as widely and open-heartedly as we can.
Here at the Nottingham Buddhist Centre, we’re a friendly community of Order Members and volunteers who run meditation classes, yoga sessions, Buddhist talks, retreats and festival days that are open to people from all walks of life and levels of experience.
As part of the global Triratna Buddhist Community, we’re here to teach and practice a style of Buddhism that strives to be compatible and relevant to a modern Western world. We very much look forward to welcoming you in person or online.
