Support & Donations
We need your support to help us clear an outstanding loan that is weighing heavily on our financial stability. Your donation can make a significant difference by freeing us from this burden and allowing us to continue our vital work without financial constraints.
Up to date, our outstanding loan is £275,000 (two hundred and seventy-five thousand pounds). We aim to repay £35,000 (thirty-five thousand pounds) each year; hopefully, we will be able to repay all the loans within 7 years.
Please consider contributing to our cause; every donation, no matter the size, helps us move closer to financial independence.

Food donations
Offering a meal to monks happens every day between 10:00 am -12:00 pm whenever the monks are present. Please always double-check with the resident monks as sometimes, they have appointments to take the service and meals outside.
At the Temple, we always have plenty of rice, instant coffee, black and green tea, hand soap, cream cleanser, toothpaste, toothbrushes, razors, paracetamol/Panadol, thus before shopping dana for the temple, it would be best to ask about the specific needs of the temple.

Temple’s outstanding loans
Although the Trust successfully purchased the property to accommodate monks and hold religious services and events, the Trust still has an outstanding loan of £275,000 (two hundred and seventy-five thousand pounds). We, therefore, appeal for your kind donations towards repaying the loans and funding the running costs of the temple.
Standing Order
Temple income varies greatly from month to month, depending on numbers of visitors, public events and festivals. A Standing Order allows a bank to take the same amount of money regularly from your account to pay to the Trust on a specified date. Standing Order donations will be spent on paying utility bills and other running costs. You can set up a direct debit on your own, or download the standing order form and return the completed form to the Temple.
