Todmorden

Todmorden's Monday night Alcoholics Anonymous meeting is held at The Kindness Hub, 36 Rochdale Road, near the centre of town, from 7.30pm to 9pm. It is a closed meeting, which in AA terms means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than for family, friends or observers; that desire is the only requirement, so a complete newcomer is as welcome as a member of thirty years. Closed meetings often allow a particular frankness, since everyone in the room shares the same problem. The venue is wheelchair accessible. There is no charge and no booking, and if Monday does not work, the same venue hosts an open step meeting on Fridays.
