Getting there
About this meeting
Blackburn Young Person's is an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with a younger focus, meeting every Wednesday at 7.30pm at Blackburn Fire Station on Byrom Street — five minutes' walk from the bus and train stations, at one end of the blue and white bridge. It is an open meeting running an hour and a half, welcome to all ages and to family and friends; the young person's badge shapes the sharing rather than the door policy. Getting sober young can feel like leaving a party early — this room is full of people who did it anyway, and are glad. The same venue hosts a Thursday NA meeting, making the fire station an unlikely twin engine of Blackburn recovery.
