About this meeting

The Twelve Monkeys Beginners Meeting runs every Tuesday evening at Central Hall on Oldham Street in Manchester's Northern Quarter, opposite Afflecks Palace. Doors open at 18:00 and the meeting lasts an hour and a half. As the name suggests, this is a gathering built with newcomers in mind, so if you're new to Narcotics Anonymous you'll find a format designed to ease you in. Each week combines a study of the Just For Today book with a speaker sharing their experience, which gives you both structure and real stories to listen to. It's an open meeting, so family, friends and professionals are welcome alongside anyone with a desire to stop using drugs. The venue is wheelchair accessible. No need to book, and nothing to pay.
