About this meeting

Set in the green expanse of Phoenix Park, the Gimme Shelter Meeting brings Narcotics Anonymous members together each Wednesday afternoon in Dublin 8. It meets at the Banana Shelter, directly opposite the Wellington Monument, so it's easy enough to find once you're inside the park. The gathering starts at 13:00 and runs for an hour, making it a solid midweek anchor for anyone building a routine around recovery. This is a closed meeting, meaning it's kept for people who have a desire to stop using drugs, so you can share openly among others who understand the ground you're on. If you're new, arriving a few minutes early gives you time to settle in before things begin.

Common questions

Who can attend this meeting?

This is a closed meeting, which means it's for people who have a desire to stop using drugs. If that's you, you're welcome. Closed meetings give members space to speak candidly among others in recovery, rather than being open to family, friends or observers.

Do I need to book or pay anything?

No. Like all Narcotics Anonymous meetings, it's free to attend and there's no booking required. Just turn up at the Banana Shelter, opposite the Wellington Monument, before 13:00 on Wednesday. NA is self-supporting through members' own contributions, so a small voluntary donation may be passed round, but it's never expected of newcomers.

Where exactly is the meeting held?

It takes place at the Banana Shelter in Phoenix Park, Dublin 8, directly opposite the Wellington Monument. The park is large, so use the monument as your landmark to find the shelter. Wheelchair access hasn't been confirmed for this location.
