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.

Foi uma experiência maravilhosa, os trabalhos e horários são bem organizados, o lugar é lindo e todos foram receptivos! Conheci pessoas incríveis e aprendi muito! Único ponto negativo é a localização, um pouco longe da cidade.

Natalia has been a great volunteer, she has worked in different areas and has adapted very well, but no one cleans as well as she does :) Her English is very good and I would even say that it improved during her her time with us. I would not hesitate to accept Natalia again as a volunteer. Thank you Natalia!

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.

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.

Volunteering here had been a truly wonderful experience for me. Beyond words. the Center itself is a serene haven. Being immersed in such a peaceful environment allowed me to reconnect with myself on a deeper level. The tasks given are not hard and the delegation is clear & well-organised. On days off there are plenty of beautiful places nearby to explore. The host Helen & other volunteers are super nice and welcoming. I met many fascinating people here from diverse backgrounds, each of whom taught be valuable and life-changing lessons.

It is a pleasure to tell you about this volunteer. It is a magical place with wonderful energy. Everyone treats you very well. You feel comfortable in everything. There is enormous respect. They are concerned about you being well, having fun and being at peace. It is a Buddhist center, and the learning you have about taking care of your mind is free. You can enjoy the FREE CLASSES, open your mind and your feelings. It is a place of peace, love and a lot of respect. The food is wonderful. Everyone is always smiling. If I could, I would live here for the rest of my life. It is paradise.

I volunteered at the Center for 3 weeks, working in the grounds and cafe. It was a great work experience, with a clear work schedule as agreed upon. The grounds and the Center are beautiful, as is the surrounding community. The food is tasty, and I was never hungry. I enjoyed it a lot, and if I am in the area again definitely plan to return! Highly recommended.

The the Center is a cozy place to learning and sharing experiences and good moments. First of all, Helen, Kendla and all team are absolutly easy-going and cheerful with me. They were so patient, because my English wasn't fluent at all, and all they were available to show me how to make everything. The task at cafe world peace were easy and the shift ever were. There're many the Center classes and books to learn and improve the wellness. Pocklington town is nearest village to 30 min walking. There're many place to walk and relax on the grass. I hope to come back soon. Kind regards

I'm very pleased this was my first volunteering experience. I felt warmly welcomed since I arrived - I was picked up from the station (also kindly dropped off). I enjoyed my tasks - Helen tried to take preferences into account. I took part in Buddhism classes and meditations (my first approach). Everyone there helped me improve my English, new words and pronunciation. I enjoyed my days off in York, Knaresborough, and Harrogate. Big shoutout to Rebecca and Jo, for their lovely company. If you're looking for a safe and peaceful environment, surrounded by beautiful nature, it's here.
