A UK Practice Centre in 2007/8

Members of the UK Sangha meet outside the New Barn Cottage.

On September 11 2008 the UK Community of Interbeing completed on the purchase of 4 New Barn Cottages which forms part of the New Barn Field Centre at Bradford Peverell, Nr Dorchester, Dorset.

This is an important step and it has already been quite a journey for our national community to reach this stage. We can now start to enjoy the cottage and develop it as a resource for mindfulness practice.

Already we have plans to hold the forthcoming UK Dharma Training Programme at New Barn Field Centre, and also to use it as the venue for the next Community of Interbeing AGM to celebrate this step, and we are hoping to invite monastic teachers from Plum Village to use the cottage as a base during the Easter period next year. The cottage will also be offered to local sanghas throughout the UK to use for small retreats.

HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT THIS PROJECT:

Currently a group of local sangha members are preparing the cottage to make it usable for small groups to hold retreats. There is much work to do and we need volunteers in the sangha to offer whatever skills they have to help develop the centre. In particular, we need someone to offer to act as a booking agent for the cottage. We still also need donations of items for the cottage and donations to pay off the remaining bridging loan we required for the purchase (see below).

List of items needed for cottage here

Please contact Judy at : NewBarn@intebeing.org.uk
if you can help or have items that you would like to donate

Once we have fully paid for the New Barn Cottage donations will be used to continue the Dharma Centre Programme so that we can extend the potentials for residential communities throughout the UK.
