Help in our world peace café / meditation centre

My experience at the café was enriching and fulfilling. Over three weeks, I took on tasks like serving customers, preparing food, and helping in the kitchen. The team was welcoming and created a supportive environment. The peaceful atmosphere of the Buddhist center made it even more special, allowing me to reflect and grow. I also appreciated observing the leadership and planning, which brought back insights from my past retail experience. Thank you for this meaningful opportunity!

Volunteering at the project Center was my first Worldpackers and the best experience! Our team was full of different international travelers, and we ran the World Peace Cafe which was so cute and fun. Lorraine was an amazing manager and always very patient and understanding. Volunteers who didn't know English got a chance to practice, meanwhile I got to explore the Buddhist faith through free books and the project classes. The city of Leicester has a lot to offer as well, so much to do. Gonna miss it here so much.

One of the most interesting WP experiences I've had! Everybody had the chance to rotate between 2 (or more) roles such as floor service / food / cashier / barista depending on their ability and preference. Lorraine, the cafe & center manager is the nicest boss you will EVER meet in the real world. She was so patient, kind, considerate to everybody despite each of own shortcomings. Lorraine kept us so well fed and the fridge so well stocked that I could cook whatever I wanted! The community here is awesome and I loved living in little Leicester! Safe and cosy!

I had a really positive experience. Everything stated in the offer was delivered as promised, and they stick to the schedules you're given, which is great. The managers are not only respectful but also very friendly and approachable. You can share your knowledge and ideas freely, and they are always appreciated. Most importantly, if you're looking for a quiet place to meditate and find peace, this place will be perfect for you.

What a great experience! Working on this project not only allowed me to learn new skills but also gave me the opportunity to connect with other international travelers and form a great team. The work was fair, easygoing, and fulfilling. Lorraine, who is an incredible manager, and Chodor, who is incredibly kind, made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Together, they created a positive and supportive environment where everyone felt comfortable and motivated. Without a doubt, this is a place I would love to come back to. ✌️

It was my first volunteering and I would repeat it definitely, it has been a very rewarding experience. The treatment there was always very friendly and attentive, Lorreine, the manager, was always very attentive and pleasant with the volunteers. The food in the cafeteria was great and the center was very nice and quiet, also adding that the project classes are very good. I learned a lot there and improved my level of English quite a bit in the short time I was there. I recommend it for all those who want to live a peaceful experience and connect with themselves :)

I cannot express how much love I have for this the project and the people who run it. I learned so much in my time here and made so many connections with such wonderful and kind people. Lorraine payed close attention to our needs as volunteers and did her best to support us why we were there. I appreciated the communication and the care that was shown. I highly recommend volunteering at the project to anyone who may be interested in the project, and who wants a fun and educational experience helping out in the cafe!

I had such a great time volunteering in the café of the project Buddhist Temple in Leicester! Volunteering there was not only an opportunity to try my hand at café work but also a chance to be part of a warm and welcoming community. I am grateful for the experience and would recommend it to anyone looking for a meaningful way to volunteer while learning new skills. Also the people I worked alongside were incredibly welcoming and supportive! The room was good and the volunteers kitchen was amazing!

I had amazing time here, Loraine, Anthea and Chodor are beautiful people who always take care of the volunteer and do all they can to make the place as a home for the ones to come to help. The job is demanding but even in the busiest days I had such good time, they are sooo patient and it makes everything fun and easier. The acomodation is comfortable and the food provided is one of the best points, there is always a lot food available! I would definetly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a quiet place in the middle of the city, I really hope I can come back soon!
