About this meeting
Mansfield 171 Big Book Stories meets at 1pm on Wednesdays at Double Impact on John Street. The number in the name refers to the personal stories section of the Big Book, which the group reads and discusses in turn, giving a lunchtime slot a real sense of structure. It's a closed meeting, for AA members and anyone with a desire to stop drinking, rather than an open meeting for visitors. Double Impact is wheelchair accessible. A weekday lunchtime meeting can suit those who prefer to fit recovery around a working day, and John Street is a central, easy-to-reach location in Mansfield.
