About this meeting
Blackheath meets on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm at Sons of Rest, 135 Birmingham Road in Rowley Regis, and runs for an hour and a half. This is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting: closed does not mean unwelcoming, only that attendance is kept to people who have a desire to stop drinking, first-timers very much included. Anyone hoping to accompany a relative or friend for moral support would be better matched with an open meeting nearby. The venue is wheelchair accessible. AA never charges for meetings and there is no booking or referral; walking in on the night is exactly how most people start, and nobody will expect you to speak until you are ready.
