The format is study of Alcoholics Anonymous, the Big Book, with members reading and discussing the programme it lays out.

Newcomers in that position are welcome without any introduction or referral. Family, friends and professionals are asked to attend an open meeting instead. The hall is wheelchair accessible, and attendance is free with no booking.
