About this meeting

They Stopped In Time is Altrincham's young persons' AA meeting, held on Wednesday evenings at 7pm at Altrincham Methodist Church on Barrington Road and lasting an hour. The name comes from a section of the Big Book about people who caught their drinking early, before losing everything, and the meeting is particularly aimed at younger members, though nobody checks ages at the door of an AA meeting. It is a closed meeting, for anyone who has a desire to stop drinking, including complete newcomers. The church is wheelchair accessible. Attendance is free with no booking, and arriving a few minutes before 7pm on a Wednesday is all the preparation anyone needs.

Common questions

Do I have to be young to attend?

The meeting is aimed at young people and those who stopped drinking early in life, but AA meetings do not check ages. Anyone with a desire to stop drinking may attend.

What does closed mean?

Closed means the meeting is for people who have a desire to stop drinking, newcomers included. Family, friends and professionals are better suited to an open meeting.

Is it free and accessible?

Yes. There is no charge and no booking, and Altrincham Methodist Church is wheelchair accessible. The meeting lasts one hour from 7pm.
