There is CCTV recording in this building but there is no CCTV access to and from the building and in the meeting room itself.
Sunday evenings in Brierley Hill bring the local Alcoholics Anonymous group together at The Oakfield Community Centre, 245 Brettel Lane, from 7pm for an hour and a half. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking, or who suspect they might; newcomers in that position are welcome, though it is not a meeting for observers. One practical point on privacy: there is CCTV recording inside the building, but none covering the entrances or the meeting room itself, so who comes and goes is not captured. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and as with all AA meetings there is nothing to pay and nothing to book.
Who can attend the Brierley Hill meeting?
It is a closed meeting, so it is for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking. Family and friends cannot sit in, but any newcomer worried about drinking is welcome.
Is the meeting private? I am worried about being recognised.
Anonymity is central to AA. The building has some CCTV, but there is no CCTV covering the way in and out or the meeting room itself, so your attendance is not recorded on camera.
Do I need to book or pay anything?
No. Arrive at The Oakfield Community Centre for 7pm on a Sunday; the meeting is free and wheelchair accessible.
