About this meeting

Deal Beginners meets at the Salvation Army on West Street every Tuesday at 7pm, running for an hour and a quarter. As a beginners meeting it is designed with the newest members in mind: the discussion stays close to first principles and nobody is expected to speak unless they want to. It is open, so you may bring someone with you, and family, friends and professionals are welcome in their own right. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed at this venue. Attending costs nothing and there is no booking or referral — many people's first ever AA meeting is a beginners meeting exactly like this one.

Common questions

Is this meeting suitable for a first visit?

Very much so. Beginners meetings exist for people new to AA, and nobody will press you to speak.

Can I bring a friend or relative?

Yes. It is an open meeting, so supporters are welcome to come in with you rather than wait outside.

Is there wheelchair access, and does it cost anything?

The meeting is free with no booking. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed at this venue, so check in advance if you need it.
