About this meeting
Dorchester On Thames Step is a members-only Alcoholics Anonymous meeting held on Friday lunchtimes at 1pm in the Upper Room of The Guest House at Dorchester Abbey, and it runs for about an hour. As a step-focused meeting, discussion centres on working through the Twelve Steps rather than general open sharing. Being members-only, it is intended for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than family, friends or professionals attending to observe. Wheelchair access at the Upper Room has not been confirmed, and given its location above the ground floor, members with mobility needs may want to contact the group in advance to ask about the stairs. Dorchester-on-Thames lies a short distance from Wallingford in south Oxfordshire.
