Bury

Bury's Monday night meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous takes place at 7.30pm at Bury United Reformed Church on Parsons Lane, a few minutes' walk from the town centre, and lasts an hour and a half. Starting the week with a meeting is a habit many members swear by, and this one is a long-standing fixture in the local AA calendar. It is a closed meeting, which means it is intended for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than for observers; newcomers who are worried about their drinking are exactly who it exists for. The church is listed as wheelchair accessible. It is free to attend and there is no need to book or bring anything.
