About this meeting

This is the Thursday evening sitting of the Oldham Royton meeting, held weekly at 7.30pm in The Welcome Centre, part of St Aidan's & St Oswald's Church on Vaughan Street. It runs alongside the Tuesday and Sunday meetings at the same venue, giving people in Royton and the surrounding parts of Oldham a regular midweek option. The meeting is closed, meaning attendance is limited to those who have a desire to stop drinking rather than open to visitors or observers. It lasts an hour and a half and, like every AA meeting, is free with no need to register beforehand. Wheelchair accessibility at the venue has not been confirmed, so it is worth checking in advance if step-free access is needed.
