Making Amends is a men's Narcotics Anonymous meeting that gathers each Thursday evening in Leith. Starting at 18:30 and running for an hour, it meets in the Main Hall at St. James Episcopal Church on Johns Place, close to the heart of the neighbourhood. This is a speaker meeting, so most Thursdays one member shares their own experience of recovery in some depth, giving the room something honest to reflect on. It's a members-only meeting for men with a desire to stop using drugs, which tends to make for frank, unguarded conversation. The Main Hall is on the ground floor with wheelchair access. If you're new to NA in Edinburgh, this is a steady, welcoming place to begin the week.
Who can attend this meeting?
This is a closed men's meeting, which means it's for men who have a desire to stop using drugs. It isn't open to visitors or observers, so the room can talk openly. If you're a man wanting to stop using, you're welcome to come along; other NA meetings in Edinburgh are open to family and friends.
Do I need to book or pay?
No. Like all Narcotics Anonymous meetings, this one is free to attend and there's no booking. Just turn up on Thursday for the 18:30 start. NA has no dues or fees; a voluntary collection is passed to cover room hire and refreshments, but you never have to give anything.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes. The meeting is held in the Main Hall at St. James Episcopal Church, which has wheelchair access. Hearing loop provision hasn't been confirmed, so if you have specific access needs it's worth checking ahead.
