About this meeting
Ashburton Lunchtime meets on Saturdays at 1pm at St Lawrence Chapel on St Lawrence Lane in Ashburton, in the Newton Abbot area of Devon. The hour-long meeting is closed, which means it is intended for people who have, or wonder whether they have, a desire to stop drinking; you do not need to be sure you are an alcoholic to attend. A weekend lunchtime slot suits people whose evenings are spoken for, and it pairs naturally with the chapel's Thursday evening meeting if you want two fixtures a week. It is free to attend and there is no booking or referral. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for the chapel.
Common questions
Can family members come along?
This is a closed AA meeting, so it is reserved for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking. Relatives and friends looking to learn about AA are welcome at open meetings instead.
What does it cost?
Nothing. AA meetings are always free, with no booking needed. Just arrive at St Lawrence Chapel before 1pm on a Saturday.
Are there other meetings at this venue?
Yes. St Lawrence Chapel also hosts a Step and Tradition meeting on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm.
