Brighton Big Book Study meets early on Wednesday evenings at the Chapel Royal, 164 North Street, from 6.30pm for one hour. The format is exactly what the name promises: reading and discussing the Big Book, the foundational text of Alcoholics Anonymous, and relating its programme to day-to-day sobriety. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking; that includes anyone walking in for the first time, and there is no need to contact the group beforehand. The 6.30pm start makes it possible to come straight from work in the city centre. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed at this venue. Attendance is free, and nothing needs to be booked.
Do I need to bring a copy of the Big Book?
No. You can simply attend and listen; the group works through the text together and newcomers are not expected to bring anything.
Can supporters or professionals attend?
This is a closed meeting, so it is for people with a desire to stop drinking. Brighton has open meetings on other days for family, friends and professionals.
Is there any cost?
None. The meeting is free with no booking, starting at 6.30pm on Wednesdays at the Chapel Royal, 164 North Street.
