About this meeting
Deal Feelings is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting that takes place every Thursday at 1pm in St Leonards Church Hall on Rectory Road in Deal. The lunchtime timing makes it a practical option for members working nearby or wanting to fit a meeting around the middle of the day. As its name suggests, the focus leans towards sharing feelings and experience rather than formal step study, though it remains grounded in AA's approach to recovery from a desire to stop drinking. Being closed, it's for people who identify with that desire rather than an open session for the public. The hall is wheelchair accessible, and the meeting is free with no need to book ahead.
