Odaat Big Book Study meets on Thursday evenings at 7.30pm at the South Portslade Community Centre on Church Road in Portslade, on the western side of Brighton. The meeting lasts an hour and centres on study of the Big Book, the basic text of Alcoholics Anonymous, with ODAAT standing for One Day At A Time. It is a closed meeting, which means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking; anyone in that position is welcome, first-timers included. The community centre is wheelchair accessible. Like all AA meetings it costs nothing to attend, there is no booking, and you can leave whenever you need to.
What happens at a Big Book study meeting?
Members read a passage from the Big Book, AA's core text, and then share their experience of how it applies to their own recovery. You can listen without speaking.
Am I allowed to attend as a newcomer?
Yes. Although this is a closed meeting, that only means it is for people with a desire to stop drinking. Newcomers with that desire are exactly who it is for.
Is the venue accessible?
Yes, South Portslade Community Centre is listed as wheelchair accessible.
