About this meeting

Ilford Barkingside Recovery meets on Monday evenings at eight o'clock in Gants Hill Methodist Church on Gants Hill Crescent, at the Cranbrook Road end of the street, which is worth knowing given the crescent's length. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and is open, so anyone can attend, whether they have a desire to stop drinking or are there to support a friend, partner, or relative. Alongside meeting at the church in person, it also runs online, with joining details on Alcoholics Anonymous's own meeting page, so it can be reached from home as well as from Barkingside. There's no cost to attend and nothing to book in advance.

Which end of Gants Hill Crescent is the church on?

Who can attend this meeting?

Is there a cost, or do I need to book?

No, it's free and there's no booking required; just arrive at the church before 8pm, or join online instead.
