Imagine a new kind of Buddhist community, a webinar on January 13th

Suvana Cohousing is Triratna’s first cohousing project, and it is going to be built just outside Cambridge. Each household will have its own private home and share community spaces. Residents will manage the community and participate in shared activities. There are opportunities for purchase or rental and it may also appeal to investors.

Suvana is entering the design stage with TOWN, the UK’s leading cohousing developer.

Joining the webinar is free.
