Residential Volunteers needed - It takes a lot of work to keep the Centre open, and all of it is done by volunteers. Like a duck, it may look very peaceful and tranquil on the surface, but there's a fair amount of paddling going on underneath! In a building this size there is always something that needs doing and our volunteers do a pretty diverse range of activities from managing the office, helping run the tea room, cooking, cleaning public areas as well as preparing rooms. For those with more specialist skills and/or knowledge, there are other avenues to explore.
Volunteering in a Dharma Centre is a great way to incorporate Buddhist Practice into your daily life. It creates merit by offering service through working in the Centre, while enabling one to participate in teachings, meditate regularly and be part of a supportive community. It often opens doors to new and unexpected opportunities.
