The Monday Dooradoyle group holds a closed Steps meeting at 8.30pm in the Scout Hut to the rear of St. Paul's Church, near St. Paul's Roundabout in Dooradoyle, Limerick. The Steps format means the session focuses on working through the Twelve Steps rather than general open sharing, and being closed it is limited to those with a desire to stop drinking. There is no charge to take part and nothing to book in advance, so newcomers can simply arrive shortly before the start. Wheelchair accessibility at the Scout Hut has not been confirmed, so anyone with mobility needs is encouraged to check with the group beforehand.
Is this meeting open to everyone
No, it is a closed meeting, kept for people with a desire to stop drinking. Family, friends and professionals are asked to look for an open meeting instead, as this one is reserved for members working on their own recovery.
Do I need to book or pay to attend
No booking and no fee. AA meetings are free to attend and newcomers can simply arrive shortly before the start time and take a seat. A basket is usually passed round for voluntary contributions towards room hire and refreshments, but nobody is asked to give if they cannot.
What makes this meeting different from the other Dooradoyle meetings
This one follows a Steps format, working through the Twelve Steps in order, whereas the Tuesday and Thursday meetings at the same venue are general discussion meetings.
