The Kilmaine meeting brings Alcoholics Anonymous to the local school on Monday evenings at 8.30pm, in the heart of the village between Ballinrobe and the Mayo-Galway border country. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is intended for those who have a desire to stop drinking rather than the general public, though this is a small distinction rather than a barrier, since newcomers are always welcome once they identify with that description. Meetings follow the usual AA pattern of shared experience, strength and hope, with members reading from the literature and taking turns to speak. Kilmaine National School is the venue, in Co. Mayo, and the group keeps to the same night and time each week. No appointment or referral is required to attend.
Can anyone come to the Kilmaine meeting?
It is listed as closed, which in AA means it is for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the general public. If that describes you, you are welcome regardless of how new you are to the fellowship.
Is there a fee or do I need to book a place?
No. AA meetings are free and there is no booking system. You can simply arrive at Kilmaine National School before 8.30pm on Monday.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Accessibility has not been confirmed for this venue, so anyone with mobility needs may want to check with the group in advance.
