This closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting is held on Friday evenings at 8.30pm at Ards Friary in Creeslough, Co. Donegal, a little outside Letterkenny itself but grouped with the town's meetings for the wider district. The Friary is a well-known local landmark, set in its own grounds, and offers a quieter, more rural setting than some of the town-centre venues nearby. As a closed meeting, it is intended for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than family members or professional visitors. There is no fee for attending and no booking system to navigate beforehand. Anyone travelling from Letterkenny or the surrounding villages who prefers this Friary setting to a town venue is welcome to arrive a little before 8.30pm on Friday, ready to take part in the meeting.
