About this meeting
Ancoats Acceptance meets every Tuesday morning at half past ten in the community room inside the ASDA store at Eastlands, on Ashton New Road. It is a members-only AA meeting, for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than family or friends attending alongside them. The venue is wheelchair accessible and the meeting runs for an hour and a half, giving plenty of time for a full session of sharing. Ashton New Road sits close to the Etihad Stadium, on the eastern edge of Manchester city centre, and is well served by the Metrolink and local bus routes, making it accessible from across east Manchester.
