The Saturday edition of Bill & Bob's Excellent Adventure meets at 12.30pm at St Bede's Church, 39 High Street, Newport Pagnell, and runs for an hour. Named for Bill W and Dr Bob, the founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, the group also meets on Thursday evenings at the same church, so between the two there is a meeting here twice a week. Saturday lunchtime suits people whose weekends are harder than their weekdays, and the open format means anyone can attend: those with a desire to stop drinking, plus family, friends and professionals. The church has wheelchair access. There is no charge, no booking and no expectation that you say a word; listening is participation enough.
Do I need to book a place?
No. AA meetings never require booking and are always free. Arrive at St Bede's Church a few minutes before 12.30pm on Saturday.
Is this meeting open to family and friends?
Yes. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including people supporting someone who wants to stop drinking.
Is there wheelchair access?
Yes, St Bede's Church at 39 High Street, Newport Pagnell, is wheelchair accessible.
