FIND YOUR LOCAL MEETING

You can use this to get in touch with people practising near you. They will be able to explain about the local activities and you can discuss how to go to a local meeting to find out more. These meetings are always free to attend.


SGI-UK Centres

The SGI is a lay organisation. The centres where members come together to chant, study or plan events are open and nurtured as culture centres rather than as temples or churches. Centres are representative of the areas in which they are situated and of the people responsible for their development. Therefore there is not one model, although each centre contains at least one room dedicated to chanting in front of the Gohonzon.

There are currently 4 centres in the UK.  These are open to members and the public alike.  Please see details below for opening times and contact details.
