Es un lugar extraordinario!. Me llevé muchas enseñanzas para poner en practica. Las instalaciones son muy cómodas. Las tareas son bastante simples con indicaciones claras y el horario está muy bien. Todo el equipo es muy querido, muy amigables, pacientes y te ayudan mucho. Helen siempre está pendiente cualquier cosa que necesites. Fuera de tus tareas tienes oportunidad de asistir a las actividades del Centro y en tus días off puedes hacer hikes cerca o visitar otros sitios como Beverley, York, Withby, etc. A mi me gustaba salir a correr al pueblo más cercano Pocklington (menos de 2km ;)

Fue una experiencia hermosa, no tengo absolutamente nada malo para decir. El entorno es lindo y tranquilo, al igual que la vida que se vive dentro del centro. Me voy con una sensación de inmensa gratitud y muy feliz de haber vivo esta experiencia en un centro budista.

La experiencia en el centro fue muy linda! . Fui en invierno y el paisaje era hermoso. Helen me recibió y me acompaño de una manera muy amable, estoy muy agradecida por la experiencia en general pero en especial por toda su ayuda. Hacía frío afuera pero en la casa había buena temperatura. Las comidas geniales. La habitación muy cómoda. Es un buen lugar para disfrutar de un tiempo de tranquilidad. El trabajo es muy ameno, las tareas son simples, y te explican y enseñan lo que tenés que hacer con mucha paciencia. Fue mi primer experiencia como voluntaria y recomiendo!

Estar en este lugar de voluntaria ha sido una experiencia maravillosa y enriquecedora para mi persona, sin duda 100% recomiendo este lugar. Las personas son muy amables, el lugar es increíble, se transmite mucha paz y las comidas son deliciosas. Todo está muy bien organizado, tus horas son respetadas, existe mucha comunicación y el trabajo es sencillo, tienes toda la tarde libre y puedes andar en bicicleta, salir a caminar, ir al pueblo caminando o incluso ir a un gimnasio a 15 minutos caminando del centro. Estoy infinitamente agradecida que me han hecho sentir en un hogar.

It was a truly wonderful experience coming to stay at the Center. Helen was wonderful and eager to make your stay as comfortable as possible, the work was very well organised and it was clear what was expected. It was a delight to have two meals cooked for you a day and the place itself is in such a peaceful nature filled land. It was awesome to also have access to the classes and their library for free during my stay. Just an all round great World Packers experience.

We appreciate your feedback Libby and the contribution you made whilst here. We strive to improve all the time both in ourselves but also in the physical environment we create for others. You helped us to do that and I hope you feel you have grown a little through being here- however, you started off pretty awesome!
All the best and hope you connect with more Kadampa Centres in the future Helen xx

My volunteering experience has been unforgettable and deeply enriching. From day one, I felt warmly welcomed into an international community, sharing teamwork and meaningful social projects. I enjoyed every the Center class and teaching, and having a private session with Gen-la in Spanish was an incredible gift. The gardens, lake, buildings, and delicious vegetarian/vegan food made everything perfect. The team kindly helped me with transfers on arrival and departure. I leave full of gratitude, with lessons and memories that will stay with me, and a strong desire to return one day.

It was a journey of significant personal and spiritual growth, offering a serene and supportive environment. the Center's level of order and organization is remarkable, making all the activities run smoothly. Above all, I will remember the genuine warmth and kindness of the people there, who made me feel so welcome.

Minha experiência no centro foi incrível. Desde o 1o momento que cheguei me senti muito acolhida e respeitada. Todos eram muito generosos, sorridentes e se preocupavam genuinamente com o bem estar da comunidade. O trabalho no café era super dinâmico, conheci pessoas maravilhosas que levarei para vida além de ter tido a oportunidade de aprender e me aprofundar nos ensinamentos budistas.

I had a truly enriching experience here. The work was as described and included a variety of tasks such as gardening, helping in the café, cooking, and baking. Helen was a great host—she made sure I was comfortable with each role and regularly checked in. The atmosphere here is warm and community-focused. I really appreciated the opportunity to drop into the Center classes, and the environment itself is peaceful, safe, and impeccably clean—ideal for reflection and personal growth. Overall, this was a meaningful and balanced volunteer experience and I would highly recommend it to others.
