About this meeting
Dorchester Discussion meets every Monday at 7.30pm at Dorchester Day Centre on Acland Road. As the name suggests, this is an open-floor discussion meeting, where members raise a topic and others respond, rather than following a set book study format. It is a closed AA meeting, for those with a desire to stop drinking. The Day Centre is wheelchair accessible, so getting in and finding a seat should be straightforward. Based centrally in Dorchester, it is one of the regular weekly options for AA members in and around the Dorset county town. There is no cost to attend and no need to book, so anyone who meets the closed meeting criteria is welcome to arrive on the night.
