About this meeting

Heaton Chapel Big Book Study meets on Tuesday evenings at 7pm at St Thomas's Church on Wellington Road North, in the Heaton Chapel district of Stockport, and runs for an hour and a half. As a Big Book study, the meeting works through Alcoholics Anonymous's basic text, reading and discussing the programme as it was originally set down, which many members find gives their recovery a firmer footing. It is a closed meeting, so it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking; you need no familiarity with the book to attend, and copies are generally around to follow along. There is no charge and no booking. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed, so check ahead if you need step-free entry.

Common questions

Do I need to have read the Big Book before coming?

No. The meeting reads and discusses the text together, and newcomers can simply listen. No prior knowledge of AA literature is needed.

Who can attend, and is it free?

It is a closed AA meeting, for anyone with a desire to stop drinking, and it is completely free with no booking needed.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

Wheelchair access has not been confirmed at St Thomas's Church, so it is worth checking locally before you travel.
