The Location Friday Group meets weekly in the Winyates West area of Redditch, gathering at 7:30pm every Friday for Overeaters Anonymous. Because the exact venue is confirmed by phone rather than published, you'll need to get in touch with Julie beforehand to find out where to go — a quick call sorts out the details. OA follows the same twelve-step approach many people know from other fellowships, applied here to compulsive eating, and shares the burden of recovery through honest talk among people who understand it firsthand. This group is part of the Heart of England Intergroup. If Friday evenings suit you and you're looking for a regular local meeting, this one has a friendly point of contact to help you find your feet.
Who can attend this meeting?
This is a closed meeting, which means it's for people who have a desire to stop eating compulsively. If that describes you, you're welcome. Closed meetings keep the room to members and those who think they may want to be, so everyone can speak freely. It doesn't mean the meeting is cancelled — just that it's members only.
Is there a cost or do I need to book?
There's no charge to attend and no booking system. OA runs on voluntary contributions from members to cover expenses, but nobody is turned away for lack of funds. You don't need to register in advance — though for this group you'll want to call Julie first to confirm the meeting location in Winyates West.
How do I find out where the meeting is held?
The venue address isn't published, so contact Julie ahead of time for directions to the Winyates West location. Her number is listed on this page. Wheelchair access and other facilities haven't been confirmed, so it's worth asking about any practical needs when you call.
