About this meeting

Farnham's Thursday Big Book study meets at 7.30pm in the Studio Room at The Spire Church on South Street, in the town centre, and lasts an hour. The group reads Alcoholics Anonymous, the book the programme comes from, a section at a time, and shares on it, which suits anyone who wants to understand the mechanics of recovery rather than take them on trust. It is an open meeting, so family, friends and professionals may attend as well as people with a desire to stop drinking. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this room, so check ahead if needed. The meeting is free and unbooked, one of several AA meetings hosted at The Spire each week.

Common questions

Do I need my own copy of the Big Book?

No. The group reads together at the meeting, so you can follow along without a copy, and you are welcome to just listen on your first visits.

Who can attend?

Anyone. It is an open AA meeting, welcoming people who want to stop drinking as well as family, friends and professionals.

Is there a charge, and is the room accessible?

The meeting is free with no booking. Wheelchair access for the Studio Room has not been confirmed at this session, so check with The Spire Church if you need step-free access.
