Weekend & Week retreats

Retreats offer the chance to break out of our usual routines and get a fresh perspective on our life. We can explore meditation and Buddhism much more deeply than is usually possible in an evening class at the centre.

The Triratna Buddhist Community has a number of national retreat centres that offer a broad range of retreats on a variety of themes, and for differing levels of experience. The brochures for these centres are available at the Birmingham Buddhist Centre, or see www.goingonretreat.com. The centre also runs its own retreats in hired premises: Anybody's Barn outside Malvern in Worcestershire, and Big Mose Basecamp near Bridgnorth in Shropshire.

To book a retreat, please send us a £25 deposit (payable to 'Birmingham Buddhist Centre'). This is non-returnable or transferable. On the retreat we will ask for a further donation. The amounts shown below are what we suggest as the total donation, including deposit, unless stated as a 'cost'.

These retreats are suitable for anyone who has already completed our Introduction to Buddhist meditation course, unless specified otherwise. Directions to the retreat location and information about the retreat are sent out upon booking or shortly before the retreat date.
