About this meeting

Lower Gardiner Street Friday is a weekly Al-Anon Family Groups meeting held at 1pm at Teach Mhuire on Gardiner Street, Dublin 1. Al-Anon exists for people whose lives have been affected by someone else's drinking, including partners, parents, adult children and friends, rather than for the drinker. It is an open meeting, so anyone with an interest, including a newcomer visiting for the first time, is welcome without any need to arrange it beforehand. The meeting lasts an hour, making it a manageable lunchtime option in the city centre. There is nothing to pay and no booking required; those attending can simply arrive shortly before 1pm and take part as they feel comfortable.

Common questions

Do I have to bring the person whose drinking has affected me?

No. Al-Anon is for you, in your own right. You can attend on your own; the person does not need to come, know you are attending, or be involved in any way.

How much does it cost to attend?

Nothing. Al-Anon meetings are free of charge, with no membership fee and no need to reserve a place.

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.
