About this meeting
Known locally as Manchester Central Saturday (Women-Preferred), this Gamblers Anonymous meeting is held every Saturday at 10am at Friends Meeting House on 6 Mount Street in Manchester. It is an open meeting, so there is no restriction on who can attend; people affected by their own gambling sit alongside family, friends and professionals. The fellowship's sole membership requirement is a desire to stop gambling, though that is not asked of anyone simply attending an open meeting. It runs for two hours. This particular Saturday session is listed as women-preferred, though as an open meeting it remains open to all. There's no need to book, just turn up.
Common questions
Can family and friends come to this meeting, not just people who gamble?
Yes. Being an open meeting, it welcomes anyone touched by gambling, whether that is their own or someone else's, alongside professionals who want to learn more.
Does it cost anything to attend?
No. It is free to attend, and there is no need to book or sign up beforehand.
Is this meeting only for women?
It is listed as women-preferred, a preference reflected in the meeting's name, but it still runs as an open meeting, so it is not restricted to women only.
