About this meeting

Leeds Early Birds Wednesday meets weekly at 5.15pm at Forward Leeds on Kirkgate, Leeds. Al-Anon Family Groups support people whose lives have been affected by someone else's drinking, including partners, parents, adult children and friends, rather than the person who drinks. As an open meeting, it welcomes anyone with an interest, including a first-time visitor, without any need to arrange it beforehand. The meeting lasts an hour, a manageable length straight after the working day. There is nothing to pay and no booking required; those attending can simply arrive a little before 5.15pm and take a seat, sharing or listening as they prefer on the night.

Common questions

Do I need to bring along the person I'm concerned about?

No, and most people don't. Al-Anon meetings are for the family member or friend, not the person who drinks, so you can attend entirely on your own.

Do I need to sign up before coming along?

No sign-up is needed. The meeting is free and open, so you can simply arrive on the day.

Is it awkward to turn up on my own for the first time?

Most people do exactly that. The meeting is open to newcomers, and you are welcome to sit quietly and listen for as long as you need.
