The World Red Swastika Society is a Taoist voluntary organisation. Located along Green Lane, it traces its history to the Red Swastika Society founded in China in 1922 as a philanthropic branch of the Society of Dao and Virtue. The society's movement is similar to the Red Cross but is grounded on Buddhism and Taoism.
