About us

Welcome to a community built around genuine, living Buddhist practice. We're based at Vajravarahi Kadampa Meditation Centre, near Preston city centre, part of the New Kadampa Tradition which is a lineage of meditation and teachings passed down with care, not a repackaged wellness trend. What you'll find here has been practised and refined for centuries, offered simply and practically for modern life.

This group is for anyone curious about meditation, Buddhist philosophy, or simply looking for a steadier, kinder way to meet daily life whether you're completely new or have practised for years.

We share:
๐Ÿง˜ Free 30-minute meditations: a gentle way to try it out, no experience needed
๐Ÿ“– Classes: structured teachings on meditation and Buddhist thought, in person and online
๐Ÿ’ฌ Sangha Circle: an informal discussion group to explore ideas and support each other's practice
๐ŸŒฑ Orientation sessions: for anyone wanting to understand what we do and how to get involved
๐Ÿƒ Community volunteering: including litter-picking on West Cliff, because practice isn't just on the cushion
๐ŸŒธ Retreats and special events: check the website for what's coming up

Whatever brings you here (curiosity, stress, grief, searching, or just wanting some quiet) you're welcome. This is a place to learn, ask questions, sit with others, and take what's useful for your own life.
