Annual General Meeting:In the monastery main sala on June 9th at 3pm. Agenda items include: financial report, sangha report, ratify final Memorandum (draft agreed last AGM) for constitution, development plans for 2013/14 and the election of the committee. We are delighted that almost the entire existing committee is happy to continue for another year. All are welcome.
Queen’s Birthday Retreat:A wonderful three days. Some new faces and several familiar friends. The Labour Weekend Retreat is not so far away. Details later.
Privacy Trellis:A fairly modest construction but one which should give more emphasis to the privacy of the kuti at the rear of the sala and the seclusion of the sala. view photos
