Getting there
About this meeting
The Sunday evening Chorley meeting gathers at 6.30pm at St Barnabas Church on Chapel Lane in Heapey, a village on Chorley's eastern edge. It is an open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, welcome to all — including family and friends — and runs for an hour and a quarter. Sunday evening is a notoriously wobbly hour in early sobriety: the weekend's wreckage or its loneliness, plus Monday looming. A quiet village church meeting is a good answer to it. The same venue hosts a closed meeting on Monday evenings, giving this corner of Lancashire two chances a week.
Common questions
Can family attend this one?
Yes — Sunday's Heapey meeting is open, so anyone may come. (The Monday meeting at the same church is closed, for drinkers only.)
How long is it?
An hour and a quarter, starting at 6.30pm.
What is the atmosphere like?
A small village-church AA meeting: tea, quiet welcome, honest sharing. If Sunday evenings are your hardest hour, this is a good place to spend one.
