About this meeting

Held every Friday lunchtime at George Street Social, this Newcastle-Upon-Tyne Newcomers meeting runs for an hour from half past twelve and is designed as a first point of contact for anyone new to AA. It is an open meeting, so both newcomers and existing members are welcome, and a chit system is available for those who need attendance confirmed elsewhere. The venue on George Street is shared with several other Newcastle groups through the week, in the west of the city. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this address, so anyone with mobility needs is advised to contact the group before their first visit to check what the building can offer.
