About this meeting

Sunday mornings at 9am, Primary Purpose Meditation offers Chelmsford a quiet hour at Open Road, Mansard House, 107 New London Road. Combining AA's primary purpose, staying sober and helping other alcoholics achieve sobriety, with a meditation format, it suits anyone who wants a stiller, more reflective start to the week alongside others doing the same. It is a closed meeting, which means it is for people who have, or suspect they have, a desire to stop drinking; family and friends are asked to attend an open AA meeting instead. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue. There is no charge and no booking; simply arrive a few minutes before 9am on Sunday.
