Thanks to the generosity of one of our donors, we are fortunate to be able to offer a Chan Meditation Hall in Shoreditch, London — one of the very few dedicated spaces for Chan (Chinese Zen) practice in the UK and Europe. The address is 9 Printing House Yard, Hackney Road, E2 7PR.

Maintaining the venue involves ongoing costs, such as rent, business rates, and utilities. We are still raising funds to cover two years of the rental period within a five-year contract (approximately £80,000 in total). If you would like to support us in maintaining this oasis for many, you are very welcome to make a donation to our venue fund via the KindLink link below. Monthly donations would provide us with the most stable income. If you donate £10 per month, we would need around 350 donors to help sustain the centre. Thank you!

We also offer the venue for hourly, half-day or daily hire when it is not in use. The space is about 1,000 sqft. We have 12 foldable chairs, 2 foldable tables, 8 foldable stools, a projector & screen, and a portable speaker, as well as meditation cushions and mats.

As the venue is a spiritual space, we will need to assess the suitability of the intended use. If you are interested, please complete the enquiry form below. Our rates are listed below. A 50% discount is available for registered charities and community-based organisations, and further discounts can be arranged for longer-term hire. If you are a Buddhist group looking for a space to hire or share, please email us — we would be happy to discuss arrangements separately.

Rates:
Daily (9am–6pm): £650
Half day (4 hours): £400
Hourly: £120
