This event was organised by Dharma Network. Tickets were priced as low as possible while ensuring the event did not make a loss. However, following an overwhelming response, a large surplus was made. At the end of the teachings, it was announced to His Holiness on stage that donations would be going to the Burmese cyclone appeal, the China earthquake appeal and to Tibet House Trust for children's projects. The total sum donated was £68,000. Further details will appear soon.

"I feel that is is extremely important that each individual realise their responsibility for preserving the environment, to make it a part of daily life, create the same attitude in their families and spread it to the community."
