About this meeting
Croydon How It Works meets every Thursday at half past six in the evening, in Alexandra House on Dingwall Road in the centre of Croydon. As the name suggests, the meeting takes its structure from a well-known chapter of AA's core literature, reading it aloud and discussing it together, which makes it a good option for anyone still finding their feet in the fellowship as well as those who have been coming for years. It's an open meeting, so partners, relatives, and professionals are just as welcome as people with a desire to stop drinking. The meeting lasts about an hour and also runs online, with joining details on Alcoholics Anonymous's own meeting page, so it can be joined from home if getting to Dingwall Road isn't possible.
