On Tuesday mornings at 11.30, Paignton As Bill Sees It meets at Paignton Baptist Church, 43 Winner Street, a few minutes from the town centre. The hour-long meeting works from As Bill Sees It, the anthology of short readings by AA's co-founder, so each week brings a different theme to share around. It is a closed meeting, meaning attendance is for people who have, or suspect they have, a desire to stop drinking; nobody checks, and newcomers are welcomed rather than questioned. The church has wheelchair access. Attendance costs nothing and there is no booking, making a midweek morning meeting a realistic option for anyone whose evenings are spoken for.
What happens if I have never read As Bill Sees It?
Nothing to worry about. A passage is read out at the meeting, so you can follow along without owning the book or preparing anything.
Who can attend?
This is a closed meeting, for people with a desire to stop drinking, including anyone still unsure. Family and friends are welcome at open AA meetings instead.
Is there wheelchair access and any cost?
Yes, Paignton Baptist Church at 43 Winner Street has wheelchair access, and the meeting is free with no booking.
