Farewell thank you collection for Munisha and Amaladipa

By ECA Safeguarding on Wed, 17 May, 2023 - 09:13

Following yesterday’s post about Munisha and Amaladipa moving on from Safeguarding work in Triratna, here is a message from those raising money to thank them both, and to enable Munisha to have a rest before seeking further employment.

I am so grateful to Amaladipa for the support and expertise she has contributed to...

Here comes information about the next three Buddhist Healthy Boundaries courses for committed Buddhists who teach, lead, mentor or befriend those less experienced than themselves. In Triratna terms these are most likely to be Order members.

Though not related specifically to Safeguarding (a very UK approach) they aim to raise our awareness - as committed Buddhists whom others may tend to look up to - in ways which will help us avoid the kinds of situations which may from...
