Buddhism offers a radical viewpoint on ourselves and the world, based on wisdom and compassion. It enables us to live more aware and meaningful lives and to help others to do the same.
Our Buddhist practice is suitable for everyone. Our introductory classes are welcoming and informal. No experience is necessary. Simply turn up!
We believe that the Buddha’s teachings should be available to everyone so most classes are offered without charge.
Our teachers are ordained Buddhists who give their time freely and those who attend our classes offer what they can afford to help meet the costs of running and growing our Centre. In this way, everyone can access the Buddha’s teaching and everyone benefits from these act of generosity.

I've been regularly attending the Ipswich Buddhist Centre for over four years now. I was warmly welcomed from the beginning and now have a huge circle of genuine friends. Everyone is valued on their own individual merit, regardless of differences.

Ipswich Buddhist Centre has a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
It is a great place to learn about Buddhism, meditate and meet with like minded people.
