Brentwood Open is the Monday evening meeting at Pilgrims Hatch Parish Hall, on the corner of Orchard Lane and Ongar Road in Pilgrims Hatch, Brentwood. It starts at 7pm and runs for an hour and a half, and the hall is wheelchair accessible. True to its name, it is an open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting: anyone may attend, whether drink is a worry in your own life or you are alongside someone else, and professionals are welcome to observe.

Attendance costs nothing and there is no booking involved.
