About this meeting

Aylesbury Big Book Experience meets on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm at the Ark, 28 Risborough Road in Stoke Mandeville, on the southern edge of Aylesbury towards Princes Risborough. As the name suggests, the meeting centres on Alcoholics Anonymous's core text, the Big Book, which makes it a good place to hear how the programme is actually worked. It is an open meeting lasting an hour, so anyone may attend, including family, friends and professionals, alongside anyone with a desire to stop drinking. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and a chit system operates, meaning attendance slips can be signed for court, probation or treatment purposes.

Common questions

Can I attend if I'm not sure I'm an alcoholic?

Yes. This is an open meeting, so anyone is welcome, and AA itself asks only that members have a desire to stop drinking. You can simply sit and listen.

Is it free? Do I need to book?

Yes, it is free, and no booking is needed. Arrive at the Ark on Risborough Road a few minutes before 7.30pm on a Tuesday.

Is the venue accessible, and can I get proof of attendance?

The Ark is wheelchair accessible, and the meeting runs a chit system, so a slip can be signed to confirm attendance for court, probation or treatment.
