About this meeting
East End Lunch offers a midday AA meeting in Barking every Tuesday, from 12.30pm to 2pm at Barking Methodist Church, 41 London Road. Lunchtime meetings suit people who cannot get out in the evenings, whether because of work patterns, family commitments or simply preferring daylight hours. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including friends, family and professionals. The church is wheelchair accessible. There is no charge and no booking; you just walk in. The same church holds a closed lunchtime Step meeting on Fridays, so between the two you can put support at both ends of the working week.
