About this meeting

The Bristol Thursday group meets every Thursday at 1pm at St Stephens Church, 21 St Stephens Street in Bristol, as part of Al-Anon Family Groups. Anyone whose life is or has been affected by someone else's drinking is welcome to consider themselves a member, including partners, parents, adult children and friends, and no one else needs to be present. This is an open meeting, so you are welcome to come along even if you are new to Al-Anon or still unsure whether it is right for you. It lasts around an hour, ending at approximately 2pm; there is no booking system, so you can simply arrive and take a seat.

Common questions

Is this only for family members, or can friends attend as well?

Both. Al-Anon welcomes partners, parents, adult children and friends alike, anyone whose life is or has been affected by someone else's drinking, and no one needs to be a blood relative to belong.

How much does it cost to attend?

Nothing. Attendance is free and there is no booking system; you are welcome to walk in without contacting anyone first.

What time does the meeting finish?

The meeting begins at 1pm and lasts roughly an hour, so it wraps up at approximately 2pm.
