This is a newly combined role to increase attendance at WLBC classes, courses, and retreats, while also securing financial sustainability through fundraising, and potentially room hire. You will develop and implement strategies that attract newcomers and encourage regulars to deepen their engagement with our path of training. Alongside event promotion, you will cultivate relationships with donors, optimise fundraising campaigns and encourage a culture of giving within the sangha.

After an extremely challenging 2024 including death, serious illness and flood, the WLBC is rebuilding, literally and metaphorically.

We work as teams of friends animated by the Bodhisattva spirit to offer a transformative, graduated path of Triratna training.

We need three inspired and skilled people who live in or near London to take on two day / 14 hours p.w. roles in marketing, fundraising and finance.

Hear her inspirational and hard-won reflections from the talk entitled Living Sangha given at London Buddhist Centre, 2016.

By Zac on Thu, 13 Oct, 2022 - 06:00

Sangharakshita goes to Buddhafield! A first for him, and a first for the fabulous Buddhafield Festival that takes place each year at the height of the English summer. This talk was given in a tent in Devon - and the sounds of this great Dharma celebration are everywhere around as Sangharakshita marks his entry to the ‘Dharma Parlour’ with a rolling set of thoughts and reminiscences and encouragements to practice.

By Sanghamani on Thu, 13 Jan, 2022 - 16:12

One World, One Sangha - What’s Triratna done for me?

By Liz_Bassett on Sun, 31 Oct, 2021 - 11:30

I first went to the Glasgow Buddhist Centre in 2008. My life was ok, but I was looking for more meaning - something I could put all my energies into. I was going in circles. Sinhacandra, the Order member teaching meditation, reached out to me with kindness. And that made all the difference.

I still kept changing relationships and homes, struggling to get a foothold. The Buddhists seemed to know how to work with change though. And Mitra study helped me connect...

India in Crisis- How can we help?

By Sanghanath on Wed, 19 May, 2021 - 17:01

I do Karuna appeal not because they are easy, in fact, they are never easy. But in my deepest sense, I know they make difference to myself and my brothers and sisters in India. In my opinion, one of the best practical application is available in our community to help others.

I like what Sangharakshita said, “Karuna appeal is a spiritual practice because you are doing something for others”
