About this meeting

The Birchington Saturday Night Front Room meeting takes place weekly at 7.45pm in the hall of Birchington Methodist Church on Canterbury Road. Running for an hour and a half, this is an open meeting, so partners, relatives and anyone curious about Alcoholics Anonymous can sit in alongside those with a desire to stop drinking. Its informal name nods to the relaxed, front-room feel members aim for, particularly useful on a Saturday evening when other support may be harder to find. A chit can be signed here for anyone needing evidence of attendance for court, probation or a treatment programme, and the hall itself is wheelchair accessible.
