Design For Living takes its name from a phrase in the Big Book — sobriety as 'a design for living that really works'. The group meets every Thursday at 7.30pm at Mill Hill Community Centre on New Chapel Street, in the Mill Hill district south-west of Blackburn town centre. It is an open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, so anyone may attend — drinkers, doubters, family, friends — and it runs for an hour and a half. The community centre is wheelchair accessible. For Mill Hill, Witton and Cherry Tree, it is the neighbourhood's own meeting, no trip into town required.
