About this meeting
On Monday evenings, St Mary's Methodist Church on Wilmslow Road hosts Handforth's start-of-week Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, from 7pm for an hour and a quarter. If you are finding the church for the first time, it sits just after the Pinewood Hotel, with the hotel on your left as you approach. This is a closed meeting, which means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking; that includes anyone still unsure whether their drinking warrants it, since walking in and listening commits you to nothing. The church is wheelchair accessible. Like every AA meeting it is free, with no booking, no referral and no paperwork; first names are all that is ever asked.
