Sorry, didnt notice your questions earlier.

when does the year begin at this madrassa?

Roughly within 10 days after Eid al-Fitr, so dates change every yr.

i heard that mature/older students get their own room. can anybody confirm?

no, they wont get their own room, but'll share with others of similar age. There are quite a few older students (married with kids), normally local though, but are some amongst boarders too.

what are the fees?

dunno exactly atm, i think about £1100 annually, maybe a hundred or two more or less. You should phone to ask.

what is blackburn like to live?

Plenty of masajid, ulama, 2 full-time Darul ulooms, Muslim schools (primary (eg. THIS), secondary (eg. THIS), girls-only secondary (eg. THIS) ), a tj markaz, islahi majalis with different mashayikh, duroos/talks...
Prominent ulama, people, community, DUs etc means it gets visits from very senior people, ulama, awliya etc
the town itself mybe not as alive as cities...fairly safe...halal food not a problem...mainly Gujaratis, then Pakistanis, some Arabs and Bengalis too
Muslims/masajid mostly deobandi background, lotsa barelwis , salafis recently infiltrated (sly they are!) but minority, bits of shia too
Has its problems of course... masjid commitee beef, used to be racism (guji v paki) but all calm now, drugs/time-wasting etc among many youth...

anyone on this forum study there or know anyone who is/has studied there?

yes
