About the Birmingham Buddhist Centre

The Birmingham Buddhist Centre is part of the Friends of the Western Buddhist Order (FWBO) which was founded in 1967 by Sangharakshita and now runs over 80 centres worldwide. The FWBO makes Buddhism and meditation accessible as a living tradition in the modern world.

We welcome visits from schools, colleges, interfaith groups and other interested parties. We can organise visiting speakers and meditation teachers.

Attached to the centre is a shop offering an excellent range of Buddhist literature, meditation and yoga equipment, incense, cards, Buddhist figures, and more.

The centre also has a well kept garden at the rear which is available to use as a quiet space by our visitors.
