About this meeting
Named after the tradition that defines AA membership simply as a desire to stop drinking, the Hamilton 3rd Tradition group meets on Saturday evenings at 8pm at South Church on the corner of Mill Road and Strathaven Road in Eddlewood. The meeting runs for about ninety minutes and is closed, meaning it is for people working towards their own recovery rather than friends, family or professional observers. There is no fee involved and nobody needs to book a place beforehand, you can arrive as the meeting starts. South Church is wheelchair accessible. Saturday night can be a difficult time for many people early in recovery, and this Eddlewood group offers somewhere structured to be instead.
