About this meeting

A Spiritual Solution meets on Sunday evenings at 6pm at Somerford ARC, 20 Southey Road in Christchurch, running for an hour and a quarter. It is a closed meeting, which in AA means it is reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking - including anyone who is only beginning to question their drinking. It is not that the doors are locked; it is simply that supporters and observers are asked to choose an open meeting instead. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and the group signs attendance slips for anyone who needs evidence of attendance for court, probation or treatment. The meeting is free and no booking is needed.
