About this meeting

The Big Book & Tradition meeting takes place at St Mary's Church on St Mary Street in Bridgwater every Tuesday evening, starting at 7.30pm and running for around ninety minutes. It is an open meeting, so newcomers, visitors and family members can attend alongside regular members. A chit system operates here, allowing newcomers and members to mark milestones in their recovery during the meeting itself. As the name suggests, sessions typically draw on readings from the Big Book alongside one of the Twelve Traditions, giving members a structured way to reflect on their desire to stop drinking. Wheelchair access at St Mary's Church has not been confirmed, so those with mobility needs may want to check before attending.
