About this meeting
Basic Text Study Group meets at Ibbison Court Community Centre on Central Drive in Blackpool, with doors opening at 7pm ahead of the meeting starting at 7.30pm and running for an hour. This is a members meeting, for people who have a desire to stop using drugs, rather than an open meeting for visitors and family. As the name suggests, the focus is on reading and discussing the Basic Text together. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and attendance chits can be signed for anyone needing proof of attendance for court, probation or treatment. The structured, literature-based format suits people who want to build a deeper understanding of NA's foundational text alongside others working through their own recovery.
