Blackburn Recovery Group meets every Tuesday at 7.30pm at the Community Hub, 35 Railway Road — the building opposite Blackburn Cathedral that hosts several NA meetings through the week. This one is open, so anyone can attend: people in active addiction, people with years clean, and the family and friends trying to understand either. The format varies week to week across discussion, literature and speaker shares, and the meeting runs for an hour and a half. With the Monday, Tuesday and Friday meetings all at the same central venue, Blackburn NA has made one address the town's recovery landmark — this is the midweek session.
Which Blackburn meeting should I start with?
Any of them — but if you are brand new, the Friday Newcomer's Meeting at this same venue is designed for first-timers, while this Tuesday group suits anyone. There is no wrong door.
Is it really open to anyone?
Yes. Open means anyone may attend — you do not need to identify as an addict. Supporters, professionals and the simply curious are welcome.
How do I find the venue?
The Community Hub is at 35 Railway Road, directly opposite Blackburn Cathedral, a short walk from the bus and train stations.
