ARE THERE NEVER MEETINGS OUTSIDE OF ENGLAND???????

I'm sure if you're in the UK if you contact the NRAS team & let them know where in the country you are they'll provide you with information of the closest support group to you & the next meeting date, if they have it. It may be that you've missed the update for one in your area.
