Getting there
About this meeting
Lewisham Discussion is a members-only Alcoholics Anonymous meeting held on Wednesday mornings at 11.45am in St Mary's Community Centre on Ladywell Road. As a closed meeting, it is reserved for those with a desire to stop drinking, giving the group a chance to speak freely about their own experience rather than explain the programme to visitors. The format is a discussion meeting, where a topic is raised and members take turns sharing their thoughts on it. It runs for about an hour and, like every AA meeting, is free to attend with no need to book or register beforehand. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue.
