Rainham Primary Purpose is a Sunday lunchtime Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, starting at 12 noon and lasting an hour at the Royals Youth Centre on Viking Way, next to Tesco, which makes it easy to find. The room is on the second floor and the venue is listed as wheelchair accessible. As an open meeting it welcomes anyone with an interest: newcomers wondering whether AA is for them, longstanding members, and family or friends who want to understand what happens in the rooms. A primary purpose meeting keeps its focus firmly on AA's main job, staying sober and helping others to get sober. There is no charge and no need to book; arriving shortly before noon on any Sunday is all it takes.
Is this meeting open to family and friends?
Yes. Rainham Primary Purpose is an open meeting, so family, friends and professionals may attend alongside people who want to stop drinking. You can simply sit and listen if you prefer.
