About this meeting

Blackrock Beginners meets on Thursday evenings at 8pm in The Liturgical Centre on Newtownpark Avenue, near White's Cross in Blackrock, Co. Dublin. As the name suggests, this is a Beginner meeting, designed for people who are new to Alcoholics Anonymous or attending for the first time, with a slower pace and more explanation of how the fellowship works than a typical session. It remains a closed meeting, so it is for those with a desire to stop drinking rather than family members or the public looking to observe. There is no charge for attending and no need to register in advance. Wheelchair access at The Liturgical Centre has not been confirmed, so anyone with mobility needs may wish to check ahead of a first Thursday visit.

Common questions

Is this meeting suitable for someone attending AA for the first time?

No, it is free, and there is no booking system for this or any Alcoholics Anonymous meeting.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
