About this meeting

The Ballinasloe group also meets on Saturdays at 8.30pm, again at the Social Service Centre in Brackernagh, Co. Galway. This closed meeting is reserved for people with a desire to stop drinking, so visiting family, friends or professionals should look for an open meeting elsewhere rather than this one. Having both a Monday and a Saturday fixture gives the town two anchor points either side of the week, which can help those newer to the programme keep a regular rhythm. There is nothing to pay and no advance booking required. Newcomers are welcome to attend so long as they meet the closed-meeting requirement, and can expect the same Brackernagh venue used through the week.

Common questions

Can family members attend the Saturday meeting?

Is there a cost?

No, it is free and no booking is needed.

Is the venue the same as the Monday meeting?

Yes, both take place at the Social Service Centre in Brackernagh, Ballinasloe.
