Meditation and Buddhism Class
2026-08-10 19:30 - 21:30 | Adhiṣṭhāna, Coddington, Ledbury, HR8 1JL
Join us at Adhisthana to meditate with others and develop your ability to work creatively with your mind. You can either learn to meditate from scratch and develop the foundations for a daily practice or join the regulars to build on what you know and discover how to apply yourself effectively in meditation.
As of December 2025, classes are being held on Mondays from 7.30pm – 9.30pm and are open to participants of all levels of experience. Please note there is no class on 22 or 29 December 2025.
You are welcome to arrive 15 minutes before the start. You’ll be greeted at the entrance by someone who will direct you where to go and help you with any queries.
The class takes place in a room on the first floor and is, as a consequence, unfortunately not accessible.
In the first half of the session, we meditate together; this is followed by a tea break. In the second half, we learn about the teachings of the Buddha with the chance to engage in discussion and ask questions.
The class is led by a team of members of the Triratna Buddhist Order and those who are training for ordination.
If you would like more information, you can call Adhisthana on 01531 641726 or email us (otherwise just turn up!).

Two Chairs (Ink & Curtain Festival)
2026-08-11 14:30 - 15:30, 2026-08-11 19:30 - 20:30 | Coach House Theatre, WR14 3HA
In the cold stillness of a psychiatric clinic, two men sit opposite one another. One seems to hold authority, guiding the conversation with measured precision. The other sits quietly, offering little, yet seeming to understand far more than he should. As the exchange develops, the balance between them starts to shift, and the room itself feels less certain.
A young girl named Lucy Parker lingers at the edges of their conversation, her presence felt long before her story is understood. Memories fracture, truths slip, and each question opens the door to something darker. What begins as a clinical assessment becomes an unsettling struggle over power, identity, and the stories we tell to survive.
Two Chairs is a tense psychological thriller that draws its audience into a world of unease and ambiguity, where nothing is quite what it seems, and the most devastating truth waits in the silence.

Burn Baby Burn: LA Inferno (Ink & Curtain Festival)
2026-08-12 19:30 - 21:30 | Coach House Theatre, WR14 3HA
LA is burning.
When two old Angelenos lose everything, they must navigate overwhelming grief, toxic ash and paperwork purgatory surrounded by clueless celebs and frazzled firefighters. 6000 miles away, their (very) anxious daughter clings to composure.
Two-time Fringe Theatre Awards nominee, Burn Baby Burn: LA Inferno is a searing tragicomedy exploring the human cost of climate change and the humans fanning the flames. A sharp-witted blend of storytelling, songs and comic characterization. It asks questions nobody wants to answer like: Why was LA’s biggest reservoir empty? What the hell is a ‘firenado’? And how did ’80s film star Steve Guttenberg become a low-key hero?
With a childhood shaped by wildfires and her parents’ home destroyed in The Palisades Fire, Hunter has transformed personal tragedy into heartbreaking and hilarious theatre. Burn Baby Burn is Erin Hunter’s second solo show, following the success of critically acclaimed Surfing the Holyland, which garnered nominations for the Popcorn/BBC New Writing Award and an Offie. Produced by Slackline Productions, champions of women 35+, and directed by its founder, Kristin Duffy.

Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien, Lewis, Darwin and Dickens
2026-08-15 10:30 - 13:00
Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia, like the Giant’s Cave from The Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe.
A century earlier, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain.
The Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe.
After admiring the views around North Hill, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayer lived, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar.
The loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp.
Dates and booking
The walks are available on many dates, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information, including prices, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien, Lewis, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb
