<p>Weekly meetings are held on Mondays from 7.00 to 9.00pm (except public holidays) at the Friends&rsquo; Meeting House, Northall Street, Kettering NN16 8DS</p>

<p>The usual Monday evening programme consists of silent or guided meditation, ideal for beginners, followed by a reading and discussion on a meditation or Buddhist theme appealing to non-Buddhists too. They then have a tea break, followed by a session devoted to generating love and compassion for all sentient beings; and at the end they remember those in special need.</p>]]></content:encoded>
