About this meeting
Blyth Experience, Strength & Hope takes its name from the heart of how Alcoholics Anonymous works: members sharing what it was like, what happened and what life is like now. The meeting runs on Tuesday mornings from 11am for an hour and a half at Briardale House on Briardale Road in Blyth, Northumberland. It is an open meeting, so anyone can attend, including family, friends and professionals, and the venue is wheelchair accessible. A chit system operates, meaning attendance slips can be signed for court, probation or treatment purposes. Morning meetings suit shift workers, retired people and anyone who finds evenings hardest to fill safely, and a late-morning start leaves the rest of the day in front of you.
