Dear Sir/Madam
I recently became a Buddhist while living in the US around two years ago.
Since then I have moved back to the UK with my wife and three kids residing in the
Richmond andHampton area but have not been able to find a Sangha. I am a mere beginner
to the practice and would really like a place I could call home, learn more and
help out in any way I can. I was wondering if you could point me in the right
direction?
I have Sundays free as well as Thursday evenings. This would mean the world
to me as I have no Buddhist friends.
