About this meeting
Midweek support in Darlington comes from this General Share meeting, held every Wednesday at 7.30pm at the Community Centre on Willow Road. General share means there is no set book or theme; members share their own experience openly, which makes it a good way to hear a range of voices in a single sitting. The meeting lasts an hour and is closed, a term AA uses for meetings kept for anyone with a desire to stop drinking, including complete newcomers who have never sat in a meeting before. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to pay. The Community Centre is wheelchair accessible, and the same venue hosts AA meetings on most other days of the week if Wednesday does not suit.
Common questions
What does 'closed meeting' mean here?
It means the meeting is reserved for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking. It does not mean the meeting is private or shut; newcomers are welcome. Family and friends should pick an open meeting, such as the Friday one at the same venue.
Do I need to book a place or pay?
No. AA meetings are free and there is no booking system; you can decide to come on the night and simply walk in.
Is the Community Centre accessible for wheelchair users?
Yes, the venue on Willow Road is listed as wheelchair accessible.
