About this meeting

Ditchling Step meets on Monday lunchtimes at 1pm at the Quaker Meeting House on East Gardens in Ditchling, near Hassocks, and lasts an hour. It is a step meeting, working through AA's Twelve Steps, and a closed one, meaning it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than observers. A daytime meeting can be a quiet alternative for anyone who cannot get out in the evenings, or simply prefers not to. Step-free access has not been confirmed at this venue. There is no cost and no booking; you simply arrive. If you are new, you can just listen, and nobody will single you out or ask you to speak.

Common questions

What does closed mean for this meeting?

Closed means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking, which is the only requirement. Newcomers are welcome; family or friends should look for an open meeting instead.

Do I need to book or pay anything?

No. AA meetings are free and there is no booking; just arrive at the Quaker Meeting House before 1pm on a Monday.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

Step-free access has not been confirmed for this venue, so it is worth checking ahead if wheelchair access is essential.
