Hartlepool Hope meets at midday on Wednesdays in The Chapel at University Hospital Hartlepool on Holdforth Road, running for an hour. The hospital setting makes the venue straightforward to find, and it is wheelchair accessible, while a lunchtime slot works well for people balancing work or caring responsibilities. This is a closed AA meeting, reserved for people who have, or believe they may have, a desire to stop drinking; that includes complete newcomers, who are welcome to arrive unannounced and simply listen. Being closed does not mean private or unfriendly, only that it is not aimed at family members or professionals, who would be better served by an open meeting elsewhere in town. It is free, with no booking needed.
