The Blackrock Road Group holds its Alcoholics Anonymous meeting on Thursday evenings at 8.30pm at the Convent of St Francis on Blackrock Road, Cork City. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is for those who have a desire to stop drinking, and is not intended as an open session for family members or visiting professionals. Thursday evening meetings like this one give members a point in the week to reconnect before the weekend, and the convent setting is a long-established venue for AA in this part of Cork. There is no cost to attend and no booking process to go through beforehand. People new to the group, or visiting from elsewhere in Cork City, are welcome to arrive shortly before 8.30pm, provided they meet the closed-meeting criteria of having a desire to stop drinking.
Is the Blackrock Road meeting open to the public?
No, it is a closed meeting, reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than family, friends or observers.
Do I need to book ahead or pay to attend?
There is no fee and no booking required. You can simply come along for the 8.30pm start on Thursday.
Is there wheelchair access at the convent?
Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue, so it would be worth checking in advance if that is a concern.
