DANA:

Celebrating Christopher’s 80 years of age (and 50 years of teaching dharma) we would like to make him a collective dana offering. His whole life, he has modelled the material simplicity and deep generosity, and we would like to support him financially as he slows down a little into his eighties, and honour the priceless dharma gifts he has offered to so many of us and to countless others.

Whether you are attending the day or not, you can send dana to Martin Aylward, who will collate the money, and will add your name to the offering. 

You can send money by bank transfer or paypal. Bank transfers can be made in pounds, euros, US dollars and Australian dollars, as below:
