Every Thursday at 7pm, the Selly Oak group of Alcoholics Anonymous meets at Selly Oak Methodist Church on Langleys Road in south-west Birmingham. This is an open meeting, so anyone is welcome to sit in, including family members, friends, students and professionals who want to understand how AA works, as well as anyone worried about their own drinking. The meeting lasts an hour and a half and there is no charge and nothing to sign up for; you can simply arrive on the night. The church is wheelchair accessible, and support for people with hearing loss is also listed here, which is not something every meeting is able to offer.
Who can come to the Selly Oak AA meeting?
Anyone. It is an open meeting, so you are welcome whether you are concerned about your own drinking or supporting a partner, relative or friend. Professionals and students are welcome too.

Nothing, and no. AA meetings are free and there is no booking system. Turn up at Selly Oak Methodist Church for 7pm on a Thursday and someone will make you welcome.
Is the venue accessible?
Yes. The church is wheelchair accessible, and the listing also notes provision for people with hearing loss, which relatively few meetings offer.
