Room is upstairs.
Holmewood Newcomers meets on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm at the Abundant Life Christian Centre, 1 Tibshelf Road in Holmewood, on the south-east side of Chesterfield. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and, as its name suggests, is particularly aimed at people new to AA, though members at every stage attend. It is an open meeting, so family and friends can come along in support. One practical point: the meeting room is upstairs, which is worth knowing if stairs are difficult for you. There is no cost and no booking - arriving a few minutes before 7.30pm on a Tuesday is all it takes.
Is this a good meeting for my first time at AA?
Yes. Holmewood Newcomers is aimed especially at people new to AA, and because it is an open meeting you can bring a friend or family member with you.
Is there anything I should know about the venue?
The meeting room at the Abundant Life Christian Centre is upstairs, so bear that in mind if stairs are a difficulty.
Do I need to book or pay?
No - the meeting is free and there is no booking. Just turn up at 1 Tibshelf Road, Holmewood for 7.30pm on a Tuesday.
