Scarborough Newcomers meets on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm at Westborough Methodist Church, and as the name suggests it is aimed particularly at people new to Alcoholics Anonymous. It remains a closed meeting, so it is for AA members, those with a desire to stop drinking, rather than family, friends or professionals attending to observe. The format tends to keep things simple and welcoming, which can make it a good first meeting for anyone unsure what to expect from AA. The church is wheelchair accessible. There is no attendance chit system running at this group.
Is Scarborough Newcomers suitable for a first AA meeting?
Yes, it is aimed at people new to the programme, though it remains a closed meeting for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the general public.
Is there anything to pay?
No, it is free and there is no need to book ahead. Simply come to Westborough Methodist Church for 7.30pm on Thursday.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes, Westborough Methodist Church is wheelchair accessible.
