Frinton Big Book meets on Monday evenings at 7.30pm at Number 4 Youth Centre on Connaught Avenue in Frinton-on-Sea, and runs for an hour and a half. As the name suggests, the group's focus is the Big Book, the basic text of Alcoholics Anonymous, so it suits anyone who wants to get to grips with the programme as it was originally written. This is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have, or think they might have, a desire to stop drinking; if that describes you, you will be welcome whether it is your first meeting or your five hundredth. The venue is wheelchair accessible, and there is no charge and nothing to book.
