Volunteers support the centre’s daily life and hospitality. We provide accommodation and vegetarian ingredients; volunteers and the team cook together. You do not need to be Buddhist, but respect for the shrine and the centre’s routine is essential.
Support the centre's daily life: cleaning rooms, bathrooms and common areas; organising cushions and class materials; light garden care; small maintenance tasks. Also help in the kitchen (shared preparation of vegetarian meals, using ingredients provided by the centre) and at reception: welcome and guide visitors for classes and events, and organise the tea/coffee area. On retreat days, extra support setting up the space and with hospitality.
No alcohol or drugs. Keep silence during practice times and at night. Respect the shrine and meditation spaces. Do not store, prepare or eat meat in the house. Help keep common areas clean. Agree days off with the team on arrival.
