About this meeting

Candlelit Meeting is held at Moordown Community Centre on Coronation Avenue, reached by driving east off Wimborne Road, with plenty of parking outside. It runs every Thursday at 7.30pm for an hour and a half. Described as a smaller meeting with a good balance of newcomers and longer-term members, it alternates between a guest speaker and a reading, both followed by share time, with the last ten minutes set aside specifically for newcomers. For most of the month this is a members meeting, for people with a desire to stop using drugs, but the third Thursday opens up to everyone. Children and pets are not permitted. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue. The candlelit setting and smaller group size make it a quieter option than some larger Bournemouth meetings.
