About this meeting

For early risers, the Solihull Joe & Charlie Big Book Study meets on Saturday mornings at 8.30am at The Friary on St Bernards Road in Olton. Joe and Charlie were two well-known AA speakers whose close, line-by-line approach to the Big Book has been adopted by study groups around the world, and this meeting follows that tradition over an hour and a half. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is intended for people who have a desire to stop drinking, or who suspect they might; it is not aimed at observers, but genuine newcomers are welcome. Attendance is free with no booking required. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed, so check ahead if you need it.

Common questions

What is a Joe & Charlie Big Book study?

It is a detailed way of studying Alcoholics Anonymous (the Big Book), based on recordings by two AA speakers, Joe and Charlie, who worked through the text section by section. Expect close reading and discussion rather than general sharing.

Can I come if I have never been to AA before?

Yes, as long as you have, or think you may have, a desire to stop drinking; that is the only requirement for this closed meeting. It is free and there is nothing to book.

Is the venue step-free?

Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for The Friary, so it is worth checking in advance if access is a concern.
