About this meeting
Guisborough Experience, Strength & Hope meets on Wednesday evenings at 7pm at Guisborough United Reformed Church on Westgate, opposite Boyes. As the name suggests, the format centres on members sharing their own experience, strength and hope, drawing on AA's founding approach to recovery. It is a closed meeting, so it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than family, friends or the general public. Guisborough sits inland from the East Cleveland coast, giving the group a slightly different setting from the seaside meetings nearby. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for the church, so it is worth checking with the group beforehand if this matters to you. As with all AA meetings, attendance is free and there is no need to book, you simply arrive for the 7pm start.
