About this meeting
Living Sober meets on Saturday evenings at half past seven in The Crypt at St George's Church on St George's Road, in Brighton's Kemptown area. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and takes its name from a well-known AA pamphlet on staying sober in everyday life, though the format leaves room for open sharing beyond that theme. It's an open meeting, so anyone can attend, whether they have a desire to stop drinking or simply want to understand more about the fellowship. Alongside gathering in the crypt, it also runs online, with joining details on Alcoholics Anonymous's own meeting page. There's no charge to attend and no need to book a place in advance.
