Marple Recovery meets on Sunday evenings at 7.30pm at Marple Methodist Church on Church Lane, in the Marple area of Stockport. The meeting runs for an hour and a half, ending at 9pm, and offers a steady end-of-weekend fixture for people in Marple, Marple Bridge and the surrounding villages who would otherwise face a trek into Stockport itself. It is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, which means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking, or who have started to question their drinking, rather than a public information session. If that describes you, you can simply turn up on the night. The church is wheelchair accessible.
Who is Marple Recovery for?
It is a closed AA meeting, so it is for anyone who has, or thinks they may have, a desire to stop drinking. Newcomers are welcome without any introduction. Friends and family are asked to attend an open AA meeting instead.
Is there any cost or booking involved?
No. Like every AA meeting it is free, and there is no booking. Arrive at Marple Methodist Church a few minutes before 7.30pm on Sunday.
Can wheelchair users get into the venue?
Yes, Marple Methodist Church is wheelchair accessible.
