About this meeting

Tucked away at St Mary Abchurch on Abchurch Lane, off King William Street in the City of London, this Wednesday meeting focuses on Steps 3, 7 and 11 with a meditation element, a quieter and more reflective style of AA meeting. It starts at 7pm and lasts an hour. The entrance is round the side of the church, and if you arrive after the start, knock loudly and someone will let you in. This is a closed meeting, which simply means it is for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than for observers or supporters. Attendance is free and no booking is needed.

Common questions

Am I allowed to attend this City of London meeting?

If you have, or think you may have, a desire to stop drinking, yes. It is a closed AA meeting, so it is reserved for people in that position rather than family, friends or professionals, who are welcome at open meetings instead.

Is it free, and do I need to book?

It is completely free, like every AA meeting, and there is nothing to book. Just come along on a Wednesday shortly before 7pm.

How do I find the entrance, and what if I am late?

The entrance is round the side of St Mary Abchurch on Abchurch Lane, off King William Street. If you arrive late, knock loudly and someone will come to the door.
