Getting there
About this meeting
Serving Oban and the surrounding islands, this Al-Anon Family Groups meeting is held at Oban Baptist Church House, behind the main hall, on Albany Street, starting at 6.30pm and lasting about an hour. Al-Anon supports anyone whose life has been affected by someone else's drinking, whether as a partner, parent, adult child, sibling or friend, and the meeting keeps its focus on the person attending. As an open meeting, newcomers and visitors are welcome without needing any prior connection to Al-Anon, and no one is pressed to speak. Given how widely the group's catchment stretches across Argyll and Bute and the islands, some members travel a considerable distance for this Wednesday evening slot, so check the church house entrance behind the hall rather than the hall itself.
