Tranent's AA group meets on Thursday evenings at 8.15pm in the Parish Church Hall on Church Street, running for an hour and a half. It sits alongside a second, shorter meeting on Sunday evenings, giving the East Lothian town two weekly points of contact. This one is closed, kept for those with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the public, and no previous attendance is needed to walk in for the first time. The Parish Church Hall is wheelchair accessible. The later start time, just after 8pm, suits people who need the earlier part of the evening free for other commitments. There is no charge and no booking required, as with every AA meeting.
Can I attend the Tranent Thursday meeting without having been to AA before?

Is there a cost, and do I need to book?
There is no cost involved and no need to book ahead. You can just come along on the day.
Is the Parish Church Hall wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the Parish Church Hall on Church Street is wheelchair accessible.
