My story

Why would anybody cycle 516 miles?

We want to raise money to buy a permanent home for Samye Dzong London.

Samye Dzong is...

...that most rare of things - a place of peace and tranquility for all in central London. Many people of all religious persuasions (or none) have benefited from the wide range of courses, teachings and therapies made available here over the years. In addition to providing access to a deep wisdom tradition, an unbroken lineage of teachings from the Buddha, and teaching meditation and relaxation techniques for stress reduction, we also offer affordable alternative therapies such as shiatsu and acupuncture (among others), and host classes and courses run by community groups, including martial arts and mother and toddler.

We'd like to make sure this work can continue, and are prepared to cycle 516 miles to raise money towards buying our own Centre. This will give us a stable base from which we can build on the work carried out at the Centre over the last decade and continue to make a positive difference in the lives of those who live and work in London.

If you'd like to help us continue to make a difference, and give us a fantastic incentive to pedal all the way from the Thames to the Samye Ling Tea Party in Scotland, please click on the Sponsor Us Now button and give what you can.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Rokpa Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Unlike many sponsored events we will not be spending any of the money we raise on our own costs. It all goes towards a new Samye Dzong. So please sponsor us now!
