Cockfield Courage To Change

In the village of Cockfield, near Bishop Auckland, Courage To Change meets every Thursday at 7pm at the Pauline Charlton Sports Pavilion, 21 Coronation Terrace. The meeting runs for an hour and a quarter and is open, so anyone may come along, whether drink has become your own problem to solve or you are alongside someone working on theirs. Professionals are welcome too. The pavilion is wheelchair accessible. As with every Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, attending costs nothing and needs no appointment, referral or paperwork; people just arrive a few minutes before the start. For anyone in the surrounding County Durham villages, it offers a regular, local alternative to travelling into town for support.
