About this meeting

How We Stay Stopped meets every Saturday at 6pm at the Mount Zion Centre, 328A Ipswich Road, Colchester, and lasts one hour. The name gets to the heart of what Alcoholics Anonymous offers: not just stopping drinking, but staying stopped, one day at a time. This is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including family members, friends and professionals who want to see how AA works. The Mount Zion Centre is wheelchair accessible. A Saturday teatime slot suits people whose weekends are harder than their weekdays, and because the meeting is only an hour long it fits easily around other plans. There is no charge, no register and no need to say anything unless you want to.

Common questions

Can I come along if I am not sure AA is for me?

Yes. This is an open meeting, so anyone is welcome, whether you are questioning your own drinking, supporting someone else, or simply want to listen. There is no pressure to speak or commit to anything.

How much does it cost?

Nothing. AA meetings are free and no booking is needed. You can walk in at 6pm on any Saturday. A voluntary collection helps cover the room, but contributing is entirely optional.

Is the Mount Zion Centre wheelchair accessible?

Yes, the centre at 328A Ipswich Road is wheelchair accessible. The meeting runs from 6pm to 7pm on Saturdays.
