About this meeting

Meeting on Fridays at 1pm in the Melville Rooms at St Mary's Parish Church, Church Road, Barnes, this Step and Tradition meeting runs for an hour and a half and works through AA's Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is intended for people who have, or think they might have, a desire to stop drinking; that is the only qualification. The Melville Rooms are wheelchair accessible, and a chit system is available for anyone who needs attendance signed off for court, probation or a treatment programme. There is nothing to pay and no need to book; arrive just before 1pm and head in.

Common questions

Who is this Barnes meeting for?
