About this meeting
Saturday mornings see Edinburgh East End meet at 8.30am at the Christadelphian Church on Gayfield Place, an early option for members who prefer to get the day started with a meeting before other weekend plans take over. It is a closed AA group, open to anyone with a desire to stop drinking rather than the wider public, and newcomers are included in that welcome. The session lasts roughly an hour, consistent with the other East End meetings held in the same venue through the week. Wheelchair access is available at the church, so the building should be manageable for members with mobility needs.
Common questions
Who can attend this Saturday meeting?
This is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, which means it is for anyone with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the general public. Newcomers are welcome as long as that describes them, including people early in sobriety or simply exploring whether AA is for them.
Is there a cost involved, or should I book a place?
There is no charge and no booking system. You can turn up on the day without contacting anyone beforehand. A basket is usually passed round for voluntary donations to cover the room hire, but paying is never a condition of attending.
Is the church wheelchair accessible?
Yes, wheelchair access is available at the Gayfield Place venue for this Saturday morning meeting.
