About this meeting

Abbey Wood Big Book Study meets on Thursdays at 8pm at St Benet's Church, 31 Abbey Grove, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. As the name suggests, the hour is spent studying the Big Book, the core text of Alcoholics Anonymous, a format many people find helpful for getting to grips with how the programme actually works. This is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have, or think they might have, a desire to stop drinking. It is free, with no booking needed. The group operates a chit system, so attendance slips can be signed for court, probation or treatment purposes. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue.

Common questions

What does closed meeting mean here?

It does not mean the meeting is shut. In AA, a closed meeting is simply reserved for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking. If that is you, you are welcome; friends and family would be better suited to an open meeting.

How much does it cost?

Nothing. All AA meetings are free, with no booking, referral or paperwork needed to attend.

Can I get proof that I attended?

Yes. This meeting runs a chit system, so a member can sign an attendance slip as evidence for court, probation or a treatment programme.
