The Garioch Group meets every Wednesday evening in Inverurie, gathering at the Acorn Centre on West High Street. Doors get going at 7:30pm and the meeting runs for around an hour and a half, wrapping up by 9pm. This is a Narcotics Anonymous group, so the focus is on recovery from addiction and the shared experience of members finding a way forward together. One practical note worth flagging: you'll reach the meeting room via the side door at the rear of the building, rather than the main front entrance, so head round the side when you arrive. The venue has step-free wheelchair access. As an open meeting, it welcomes anyone with an interest, whether you're attending for yourself or supporting someone else.
Can I come along if I'm not sure I belong here?
Yes. This is an open Narcotics Anonymous meeting, so anyone is welcome, including family, friends and professionals. The only requirement for NA membership itself is a desire to stop using drugs, and you're welcome simply to listen while you decide.
Do I need to book or pay anything?
No booking is needed and there's no cost to attend. Narcotics Anonymous meetings are free. Members may pass a basket for small voluntary contributions to cover room hire and refreshments, but you're never expected to give anything, especially as a newcomer.
How do I get into the building?
The entrance is via the side door at the rear of the Acorn Centre, not the main front door, so make your way round the side of the building on West High Street. The venue has wheelchair access.
