Exeter

Sunday evenings at 7pm see an hour-long closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting at the Palace Gate Centre, 3 Palace Gate, Exeter. In AA, closed describes the audience rather than the door: the meeting is reserved for people who have, or suspect they have, a desire to stop drinking, giving members a more private space to share. If that is you, no invitation is needed. Family, friends and professionals wanting to learn about AA are better served by one of Exeter's open meetings, several of which run at this same venue during the week. The centre is wheelchair accessible, attendance is free, and there is nothing to book or arrange in advance.
