Blue fronted building, down from Post Office Meeting room on 1st Floor
On Saturdays at 8.30pm, Ballina Matt Talbot opens its doors for a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting on Casement Street in Co. Mayo. The venue is the same blue-fronted building used for the group's Wednesday and Thursday meetings, a short walk down from the Post Office, with the meeting itself held in the first-floor room. Being a closed meeting, it is intended for people who have a desire to stop drinking, so it works best for those already familiar with, or ready to try, AA rather than visiting family or professionals. Saturday evening tends to draw a slightly different crowd from the weekday meetings, and can be useful for anyone whose week made the earlier sessions hard to reach. Head straight for the first floor when you arrive.
Can anyone attend, including family members?
Not this one. It is a closed meeting for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than for family, friends or professionals.
Is booking needed for the Saturday meeting?
No, there is no booking system and no fee. Just turn up before 8.30pm.
Is it the same venue as the Wednesday and Thursday meetings?
Yes, all three take place in the same first-floor room of the blue-fronted building down from the Post Office on Casement Street.
