A closed AA meeting takes place every Sunday at 8.30pm at the Old Health Centre in Farranflaherty, Dingle, Co. Kerry. As a closed meeting it is intended for people with a desire to stop drinking, so it is not the right meeting for family members or professionals wanting to observe, though open meetings exist elsewhere for that purpose. Attendance is free and there is no need to contact anyone or book a place beforehand, newcomers can simply arrive shortly before 8.30pm. Wheelchair access at the venue has not been confirmed, so anyone with accessibility needs is advised to check ahead with the group.
Is this meeting open to everyone
No, it is a closed meeting, kept for people with a desire to stop drinking. Family, friends and professionals are asked to look for an open meeting instead, as this one is reserved for members working on their own recovery.
Do I need to book or pay to attend
No booking and no fee. AA meetings are free to attend and newcomers can simply arrive shortly before the start time and take a seat. A basket is usually passed round for voluntary contributions towards room hire and refreshments, but nobody is asked to give if they cannot.
Is this the same venue as the other Dingle meetings
