Hambleden Morning Mens is a Sunday morning meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous for men, held at 10am at The Crown Inn at Pishill, in the countryside near Henley-on-Thames, and lasting an hour. It is a closed men's meeting: attendance is for men who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking, and the single-sex format gives some men a setting where they find it easier to speak plainly. A pub might seem an unlikely venue for an AA meeting, but groups meet where rooms are available, and no one attending is expected to go anywhere near the bar. There is no charge and no booking; if Sunday mornings need a new shape, this is one.
