About this meeting

Hitchin Big Book meets on Thursday evenings from 8pm for about an hour and fifteen minutes at Walsworth Community Centre on Woolgrove Rd, working through passages from Alcoholics Anonymous's core text. It is a closed, members-only meeting rather than open to general visitors. Sobriety chips are given out at this group to mark members' milestones. The venue has wheelchair access, and the entrance is through the gates on the right hand side of the Community Centre rather than through the building's main entrance, a detail worth knowing before a first visit to avoid confusion on arrival.
