About this meeting

Unusually for an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, Brighton Hospital meets inside the Royal Sussex County Hospital itself, in the Seminar Room on Level 9 of the Thomas Kemp Tower. It runs on Thursdays from 6pm for one hour. The location makes it a practical option for hospital staff, patients and anyone already in the building, as well as people travelling in from Kemptown and the surrounding area. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking; you do not need any connection to the hospital to attend, and newcomers need no referral or appointment. The venue is wheelchair accessible, the meeting is free, and there is nothing to book.

Common questions

Do I need to be a patient to attend?

No. Anyone with a desire to stop drinking can attend; the meeting simply happens to be hosted in the Seminar Room on Level 9 of the Thomas Kemp Tower.

What does 'closed meeting' mean?

It means the meeting is reserved for people who want to stop drinking, rather than for family, friends or observers. First-timers are welcome.

Is it accessible and free?

Yes. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and like all AA meetings it costs nothing and needs no booking.
