Midweek, midday, mid-city: the Wednesday Cambridge Lunchtime meeting runs from 12 noon to 1pm at Downing Place United Reformed Church on Downing Street. Like its sister meetings at the same venue on the other weekdays, it is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, meaning it is kept for people who have a desire to stop drinking. For anyone working or studying in central Cambridge, a Wednesday meeting splits the week neatly and keeps momentum going between weekend meetings. The church is wheelchair accessible. Everything about attending is simple: no cost, no booking, no paperwork, no requirement to speak. You walk in a few minutes before noon, sit down, and the hour takes care of itself.
