The Drogheda Dublin Road group opens the week with a closed Steps meeting on Monday evenings at 8.30pm in Teach Mhuire on Dublin Road, Drogheda, Co. Louth. The Steps format means the group works through the Twelve Steps rather than holding open discussion, and being closed it is limited to people with a desire to stop drinking. There is no fee to attend and no booking process, newcomers can arrive shortly before the start. Wheelchair accessibility at Teach Mhuire has not been confirmed, so it would be worth checking with the group ahead of time if step-free access is needed.
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.
How does the Monday meeting differ from the Tuesday meeting at the same venue
Monday follows a Steps format and is closed, while the Tuesday meeting at Teach Mhuire is an open meeting welcoming anyone, including family and friends.
