Newcomers and Guests welcome.
Morpeth Chair and Share meets on Friday evenings at 6pm at the Methodist Church on Howard Terrace, running for an hour and a half. The format is a chaired meeting with open sharing, so you will hear one member's story followed by others sharing their own experience, and you are free to speak or simply listen. The group makes a point of welcoming newcomers and guests, and as an open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting anyone may attend, including family and friends. The venue has wheelchair access. Attendance is free with no booking needed, and the group operates a chit system, meaning it can sign attendance slips for anyone who needs evidence of attendance for court, probation or a treatment programme.
