Venue Info: Meeting held upstairs (meeting room may vary); Anyone may attend this Open Meeting: Addicts, family, friends, support workers and anyone with an interest in How It Works in NA
This Narcotics Anonymous open meeting runs on Thursday afternoons at Gateshead Library on Prince Consort Road, starting at 2pm and lasting an hour and a half. As an open meeting, it welcomes anyone with an interest in how NA works, not only those in recovery. Family members, friends, support workers and other interested people are all welcome alongside people with a desire to stop using drugs. The format varies week to week and includes shares, with a particular welcome for beginners and newcomers. Parking is available, and the meeting is held in an upstairs room, though the exact room may change. One practical note: the library is unavailable on public holidays, so it's worth checking before travelling on bank holiday Thursdays.
Who can attend this meeting?
This is an open meeting, so anyone with an interest in how NA works is welcome. That includes people with a desire to stop using drugs, as well as family, friends, support workers and anyone curious about the fellowship.
Do I need to book, and is there a charge?
No booking is needed and there is no charge. NA meetings are free to attend; just turn up on the day. A voluntary collection may be passed round to cover costs, but you never have to give anything.
Is the venue accessible?
The venue is wheelchair accessible and parking is available. Do note the meeting is held in an upstairs room, and the specific room can vary, so allow a little extra time to find it. The library is also closed on public holidays.
