In particular, the aspects where he discussed the nature of Buddhism in the West as largely unaffiliated will be useful for a Y13 topic we do on Buddhism in the UK which specifically relates to this question of ‘heritage’ vs ‘convert’ Buddhism, and also to a Y13 topic on how Buddhism relates to diversity / other faiths, and another Y13 topic on Buddhism and secularisation, which deals with the extent to which it is a secular philosophy, non-theistic way of life, religious tradition, etc.

Such an interesting evening discussing the teaching of Buddhism. Desperate to get some into our curriculum rewrite and have come away with so many ideas!

I have to say you have the most amazing team of staff who are so incredibly helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. It is the fastest book service I have ever encountered

The North East Religious Learning Resources Centre is unique in the Region as a library and resource centre of over 37,000 resources to support religious learning and mission and ministry. As a member I have been able to access materials for theological study, worship preparation, children and youth work, bible studies, lent courses, Holiday Clubs, preaching, displays and much more. The staff are knowledgeable and able to help find the correct resources or suggest new resources. I particularly love their wide range of Godly Play sets and Story Bags which have been designed and made in house and which are great for children’s work.

The staff in the RRC during lockdown and since then have been exemplary in their service and attention to detail, Deborah in particular. Patience and time are genuinely offered as students find their way around the RRC in first year studies.

I have used the Religious Resources Centre for 7 years since becoming a student of Lindisfarne College of Theology. During this time I have found the staff extremely helpful, nothing is too much trouble for them. The online system for searching for resources and reserving them to collect is great. Thank you to all the staff for their dedication and continued efforts to increase theological knowledge across the North East.
