About Day Retreats Once a month (usually the third Sunday) we offer a day of personal practice at the scout headquarters The day runs from 10 -4pm and is held in silence with alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation. Often there is a theme from the teachings and we start with a guided meditation and arrange a recorded dharma talk after lunch. The day is held on a dharma bases and we ask that participants contribute to a shared vegetarian lunch. Everyone is welcome.

We meet every Friday evening in time to start meditating at 6pm at Bath Scout Headquarters 7 Grove St BA2 6PJ.We are a friendly group coming together to support each other’s practice. If you are interested and have some experience of silent meditation you are very welcome to join us. If you are interested and are new to meditation then we can help you to get started. Suggestions on contact and links page or email with any questions.

Same format every week. 30 minutes silent meditation and 30 minutes mindful discussion.
Please note this is not a guided or taught meditation.


These sessions are ‘freely given’ and funded according to the Buddhist tradition of Dana.
Participants are invited to make a donation to cover the cost of room hire, and all the surplus goes to good causes that we agree. Over the last year we have given £300 to charities including Julian House and Help Refugees.
