The Garston group of Alcoholics Anonymous meets on Friday evenings at 7.30pm at St Francis of Assisi on Earp Street, in the Garston area of south Liverpool, and runs for an hour and a half. It is a closed meeting, which in AA language means it is kept to people who have, or suspect they have, a desire to stop drinking; that lets those in the room speak plainly about their own experience. If drink has become a worry for you, that is the only qualification, and newcomers are expected and welcomed. The venue is wheelchair accessible. Like every AA meeting it costs nothing, and there is no need to register or book ahead.
What does it mean that this is a closed meeting?
Closed describes who attends, not the building. The meeting is reserved for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking, so members can share openly. If your own drinking concerns you, you are welcome.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. AA meetings are free, with no booking or membership fee. You can simply turn up on the night.
Is there wheelchair access at St Francis of Assisi?
Yes, the venue on Earp Street in Garston is listed as wheelchair accessible.
