Getting there
Before you go
1st Thursday of every month is a STEP Meeting.
About this meeting
On Thursdays at 8pm, Carrickmacross meets in Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan, at Teach Ui Bhrian. This meeting is closed, so it is reserved for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than for visitors or supporters. In keeping with AA practice, the format centres on shared experience rather than lectures or advice. The first Thursday of the month is given over to a Step meeting instead. Those attending for the first time, with a desire to stop drinking, are welcome to come along. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue.
