Helsby Step is a Friday night step meeting, working through the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, held at 7.45pm in the upstairs room at Helsby Methodist Church on Chester Road, between Helsby and Frodsham in Cheshire. It runs for an hour and a half. The meeting is open, meaning anyone with an interest is welcome, including family members and friends, and you do not have to speak if you would rather just listen. Although the group meets in an upstairs room, the venue is listed as wheelchair accessible; if stairs are a concern it may be worth confirming with the local AA helpline first. Attendance is free and no booking is needed.
Can I come to Helsby Step if I am not in AA?
Yes. It is an open meeting, so people who want to stop drinking, their family and friends, and interested professionals are all welcome to attend.
Is there anything to pay or arrange in advance?
No. The meeting is free, with no booking or referral needed. Just arrive at Helsby Methodist Church on Chester Road shortly before 7.45pm on Friday.
Where in the building is the meeting held?
The group meets in the upstairs room at Helsby Methodist Church. The venue is listed as wheelchair accessible, but if stairs are a worry, checking locally before you travel is sensible.
