Brighton Hove Gratitude

Hove Gratitude is an early Sunday morning Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with a difference: it gathers at Sunshine Books Art & Coffee, in Hove Manor at 4 Hove Street, from 8.30am for one hour. Meeting in a bookshop cafe rather than a church hall gives it a relaxed feel, and the early start suits people who like to begin Sunday on a steady footing. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including family, friends and professionals, alongside people who have a desire to stop drinking. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and the group operates a chit system, signing attendance slips where court, probation or treatment evidence is needed. It is free, and nobody needs to book.
