My stay at the Center Centre was wonderful and very meaningful. The place is peaceful, safe and run by kind-hearted people. Spaces are comfortable and clean, and the surrounding nature is perfect to reconnect with oneself. Meals are abundant and work is chill and easy, though shifts span across the day (e.g. 9:45-16:45). Despite this, in your free time you can attend meditations and teachings, explore towns like Derby or Nottingham, or just enjoy the calmness around. It's also great to meet volunteers worldwide and build deep friendships :) This experience will stay in my heart forever, thank you 🧡

It was an instructive experience; I met many new people, gained valuable experience, and improved my English. Each day, when not working, you have the opportunity to participate in meditations and teachings. Personally, I discovered that tasks like hoovering, mopping, and washing dishes are not something I particularly enjoy, nor are they the right fit for my future. However, if you enjoy such tasks, have no issue with a vegetarian diet, and are interested in Buddhism, then this is definitely the right place for you.

My two weeks in the Center was the perfect enforcement to my future volunteer travels, every staff and customers in the centre always greet us with the kindness and smiles. I’m more than happy to come back again for a longer time!

This was my first volunteering experience, and it was very special to me. Joining the meditations, meeting wonderful people and sharing moments with other travellers made this journey meaningful. Some friendships will continue on new adventures around the world! The vegetarian lifestyle and healthy routine also inspired me to rethink my habits. I enjoyed trying different activities, practising my English and having time for reflection and personal growth. I'm very grateful for the warm welcome, patience and beautiful memories. Thank you for being part of this important moment in my life!

I had an amazing time at the Centre! Jema is very caring and reliable. I could ask her any question and she would help however she could. My goal was to improve my British English which was a success, as you interact with the locals a lot. The work was easy and not too much.

Since the first moment I arrived in the Center, I felt extremely welcome. Everyone has treated me like I already belonged there, and I could always ask if I found anything unclear. The organization is well-managed, and all the given instructions were crystal clear. I would definitely recommend the Center to people who are interested in Buddhism and the Center since there are many classes that one can attend. But if you are not a the Center, don't worry- everyone is very respectful and welcomes questions about their philosophy and way of life. the Center, thank you for everything!!

Devoting myself to the daily routine there made me feel peaceful. The tasks were all well managed, and every morning, I felt excited about the work ahead of me and the people I would meet. People appreciated each other’s contributions to making everything better. It's such a great community. I wish the world could be full of people with compassionate hearts, like those I met at the centre.

My stay at the Center Centre was the best first Worldpackers experience I could have asked for. The space is peaceful and beautiful, and the Center classes were genuinely meaningful and grounding. Everyone was incredibly lovely and welcoming from day one, and I met so many wonderful people who made me feel completely at home. It was truly a special, enriching time, and I would love to return in the future.
