In the heart of the Peak District, Bakewell's AA group meets on Friday evenings at 7.30pm at Bakewell Methodist Church on Matlock Road, for an hour and a half. It is an open meeting, so it welcomes anyone: people who want to stop drinking, those still deciding, and the family members, friends and professionals around them. Friday night is a pressure point for many people trying to stay sober, and a regular fixture at the end of the working week can carry you into the weekend. Attendance is free with no booking. Wheelchair access at the church has not been confirmed, so check before travelling if it matters to you.
