About this meeting

Accrington Step is a Saturday morning Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, starting at 10.30am at Cambridge Street Methodist Church on Lodge Street and running for an hour and a half. As a step meeting, it works through the Twelve Steps of AA, which gives the discussion a clear focus and makes it a useful complement to the town's other meetings. It is open to everyone, so partners, relatives, friends and professionals can attend alongside people who are worried about their own drinking. The church is listed as wheelchair accessible. There is nothing to pay and no need to let anyone know you are coming; many people find a morning meeting sets the weekend on a steadier footing.

Common questions

Can I attend if I am not an alcoholic?

Yes. This is an open meeting, so anyone with an interest is welcome, including family members, friends and professionals. Only people with a desire to stop drinking tend to share, but everyone may listen.

What happens at a step meeting?

The meeting centres on the Twelve Steps of the AA programme, usually reading and discussing one step and hearing how members have applied it. It is a practical format that newcomers often find easy to follow.

Is it free, and is the venue accessible?

Yes on both counts. There is no charge or booking, and Cambridge Street Methodist Church is listed as wheelchair accessible. The meeting runs from 10.30am to 12 noon on Saturdays.
