Harlow We Agnostics Freethinkers offers something many towns lack: an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting where you can get sober without signing up to anyone else's idea of God. It meets on Wednesdays at 8pm at Harlow Baptist Church, 98 Potter Street, for an hour. The name nods to the Big Book chapter We Agnostics, and the meeting welcomes atheists, agnostics, freethinkers and believers alike; the only real subject is staying away from a drink. It is an open meeting, so family, friends and professionals may attend too. If wariness about the word God has kept you from AA, this is a sensible place to test that. Free, with no booking needed.
Do I have to believe in God to attend AA?
No, and this meeting exists to make that plain. It is run by and for agnostics, atheists and freethinkers, though people of any belief or none are welcome. The focus is recovery from alcoholism, not religion.
Who can attend?
Anyone. It is an open meeting, so people who want to stop drinking, family members, friends and professionals may all come along.
Does it cost anything?
No. Like all AA meetings it is free, with no booking; arrive at Harlow Baptist Church before 8pm on a Wednesday.
