About this meeting
The Ballydesmond group holds a closed Steps meeting every Monday at 8.30pm at the Old School, now home to the Foilogohig Heritage Centre, Co. Cork, within reach of Mallow. Working through the Twelve Steps in sequence rather than open sharing, the format can appeal to those wanting a more structured session. As a closed meeting, it is for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than the general public or visiting professionals. The Heritage Centre setting gives this corner of north Cork a regular weekly fixture. There is no cost and no need to book beforehand. Anyone eligible to attend should make their way to the Old School building at Foilogohig before half past eight on Monday evening.
