On Tuesdays at 7.30pm, Alcoholics Anonymous members gather in Glasgow for the 1St Riddrie meeting. The meeting takes place at St Enochs Hogganfield Church, Access Via Side Entrance On Smithycroft Rd. As with all closed AA meetings, it is intended for those who have a desire to stop drinking, and is not billed as a general public meeting. The meeting lasts around an hour and a half. For those who need it, a chit can be signed at the meeting as evidence of attendance for court, probation or treatment purposes. Newcomers can simply come along; no booking is needed and there is no fee.
