Growing For Change meets in Stronsay Community Centre on Stronsay Place, Bispham, every Wednesday at 7pm for an hour. It is a closed AA meeting, meaning it is intended for members and for people who have a desire to stop drinking, rather than for friends, relatives or professional visitors. The room is wheelchair accessible and has a hearing loop fitted, which is worth knowing if you or someone attending with you has hearing difficulties. There is no cost involved and no need to book in advance, as with every AA meeting; you can simply turn up shortly before 7pm. The group sits alongside several other Bispham-based meetings in the wider Blackpool programme.
