Denton Solution Based meets on Thursday evenings at 8pm at Carmel Community Church on Seymour Street in Denton, east Manchester, and lasts an hour and a quarter. Solution-based meetings put the emphasis on what works: the Steps, the tools and the practical experience of people who have found a way out, rather than dwelling on the drinking itself. It is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, so it is for anyone who has a desire to stop drinking; supporters and professionals are better served by an open meeting nearby. The church is wheelchair accessible. There is no cost and no booking, and newcomers can simply listen until they feel like joining in, which might be the first week or the fiftieth.
What does 'solution based' mean?
The meeting focuses on the solution rather than the problem: how members use AA's Twelve Steps and tools to stay sober, shared through their own experience.
Who can attend this meeting?
It is a closed AA meeting, for anyone with a desire to stop drinking. Family and friends are welcome at open meetings elsewhere in the Manchester area.
Is it free, and is the venue accessible?
Yes. There is no charge and no booking, and Carmel Community Church on Seymour Street is listed as wheelchair accessible.
