About this meeting

The United Reformed Church Rooms on Lion Walk in Colchester, Essex, hold an Al-Anon Family Groups meeting every Sunday at 6.15pm. Al-Anon exists for people around a drinker, partners, parents, sons, daughters and friends, whose own lives have been shaped by someone else's drinking, rather than for the drinker. It is an open meeting, so anyone in that situation can attend without contacting anyone first, and the person whose drinking has affected you does not need to come along. The meeting lasts an hour and a quarter and is free, with no booking needed, held weekly on Sunday evenings.

Common questions

Who is this meeting for?

Al-Anon Family Groups is for people whose own lives have been affected by someone else's drinking, partners, parents, adult children, brothers, sisters and friends, rather than for the person who drinks.

Do I need to bring the person whose drinking has affected me?

No. The meeting is for you, in your own right. Many people attend on their own and the relative or friend who drinks never needs to come along, or even know you are going.

Does it cost anything, and do I need to book?

It is free to attend and there is no need to book or register. The meeting is held weekly on Sundays at 6.15pm and lasts an hour and a quarter; just arrive for the start.
