About this meeting
St Mary's Catholic Church on Woodbridge Road in Ipswich, Suffolk, hosts an Al-Anon Family Groups meeting held in Polish every Thursday at 7.15pm. Al-Anon is for people affected by someone else's drinking, partners, parents, adult children and friends, rather than for the person who drinks. It is an open meeting, so anyone in that situation can attend on the day, and the relative or friend whose drinking has affected you does not need to come along or know about it. The meeting lasts an hour and is free to attend, with no booking needed. It runs weekly, giving Ipswich's Polish-speaking community a regular meeting in their own language.
