About this meeting

Women In Recovery is a women's Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in Christchurch, gathering on Tuesdays at 12.30pm at St Joseph's Church, 67 Purewell, for an hour and a quarter. Many women find a women's meeting a safer-feeling place to talk about drinking, particularly early on, and the lunchtime slot fits around school runs and work. It is listed as an open meeting, so visitors such as family members or professionals may attend, though the focus of the sharing is women supporting each other in sobriety. The church has wheelchair access. There is no cost and no booking; you can arrive just before 12.30pm, take a seat, and simply listen if that is all you feel ready for.
