The Buddha lived 2,500 years ago in India and taught love, generosity and awareness. The Nottingham Buddhist Centre is dedicated to the spread of the Buddha's message in a way that is relevant to us here and now, yet remains faithful to the essentials of the Buddhist Tradition.

For those new to the centre, we have a weekly meditation class, suitable for beginners. For those with some experience of meditation we run Buddhism and meditation courses several times a year for those who want to learn something of the Buddha's message.

The Centre is located in the lace market district of Nottingham city centre. We have Nottingham's best-stocked Buddhist bookshop, which sells books on most Buddhist topics, cards, postcards and incense and some CD's.

The centre is run by a small team from the Western Buddhist Order, assisted by those who attend the centre regularly. It is affiliated to the Friends of the Western Buddhist Centre (FWBO), a Buddhist movement founded by Sangharakshita.
