Newmarket Big Book Study spends each Wednesday evening with AA's core text, meeting at 7.30pm at Brough Scott House, 1 Bill Rickaby Drive, and running for an hour. The group reads and discusses the book Alcoholics Anonymous, from which the fellowship takes its name, so it suits anyone who wants to understand how the programme actually works rather than just hearing about it. It is an open meeting: family, friends and professionals are welcome alongside anyone who wants to stop drinking. Brough Scott House is wheelchair accessible. There is no charge and no booking, and you don't need to own a copy of the book or have read a word of it beforehand.
Do I need to bring a Big Book or have read it?
