About this meeting

Newcomers Step and Tradition meets on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm at the University Catholic Chaplaincy, 103 Queens Road, Clifton. The hour-long meeting works through AA's Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, the backbone of personal recovery and of how groups run, which makes it a good place to understand the programme properly rather than by osmosis. It is a closed meeting, reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking; the same group runs an open speaker meeting at this venue on Mondays at 8pm, which suits family, friends and professionals. The group can be reached by email at [email protected]. Wheelchair access at the building has not been confirmed.

Common questions

What is a Step and Tradition meeting?

Each week the meeting takes one of AA's Twelve Steps or Twelve Traditions as its focus, reading and sharing on it. Over time you cover the whole programme. Newcomers can listen without speaking.

Can supporters or professionals attend?

This is a closed meeting, so it is kept for people with a desire to stop drinking. Supporters are welcome at the group's open speaker meeting on Mondays at 8pm at the same address.

Is it free, and can I contact the group beforehand?

It is free with no booking. If you have questions first, the group can be emailed at [email protected].
