Moving on from Turner Street

Moving on from Turner Street An Important Decision on the Future of our Centre Update: After responses from the local Sangha, the Centre’s Trustees have now decided to “go back to before the decision to move was made”. A process of engagement is now underway, this will ensure that all voices can be heard and all options can be considered moving forward. January 2023 The Centre’s Trustees have confirmed that for the long term health and future of our Sangha, we now need to start the process of moving from Turner Street to the next chapter in our community’s life. Whether we can stay in this building has been in the air for a long time and despite every effort, staying in this building can no longer be financially sustained: Reduced rental income Decreased income from courses and the bookshop Energy costs projected to rise from £16,000 to £82,000 over the next year Repairs and improvements to the building, plus adding disabled access, costing at least £600,000 A Vision for our Future What will help our community to deepen and grow? What conditions will help this next chapter to be the brightest one yet? We’re discussing ideas but we don’t know yet what this next chapter will look like. With many conversations ahead of us, our priority will be to make sure that we take care of one another. We’ve built something great together during our time in Turner Street and we want to honour this and ensure that the energy, inspiration and friendship we so value, moves with us. Read the Trustees’ email in full Meeting as a Community Over a hundred of us came together in the Lotus Hall and on Zoom on 16th September to hear more from our Chair, Silabodhi; to ask questions from the people most involved, to talk about how we’re feeling and to think about next steps.
