About this meeting

In the early afternoon, Belfast East End runs a second Saturday meeting at 2.30pm, again at the Skainos Centre on Newtownards Road. It follows the same open format as the group's other sessions, meaning anyone can attend regardless of whether they have a desire to stop drinking themselves. This slot sits between the group's midday and evening Saturday meetings, giving three points in the day to choose from. Attendance is free throughout and there is no booking required. Those unable to get to the venue can ask for a Zoom link by email instead. Wheelchair access at the centre has not been confirmed, so it is worth checking in advance if you need step-free entry.
