About this meeting

Blackpool Big Book Study meets on Saturdays at midday at Ibbison Court Community Centre on Central Drive, close to the centre of Blackpool. The group spends an hour reading and discussing the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, the text that sets out the Twelve Step programme of recovery. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend: people who want to stop drinking, family members and friends, and professionals with an interest in AA. The one-hour lunchtime format makes it easy to fit around a weekend. There is no cost and no booking; people simply arrive. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue, so check ahead if you need it.
