About this meeting
Our Primary Purpose meets on Monday evenings at St Mary's Centre, a separate building just past St Mary's Church on Church Street in Dunmow, starting at 7.30pm and running for an hour and a half. The entrance is on the left-hand side past the church itself. The meeting format is varied rather than fixed to a single book or study, giving the group flexibility from one week to the next. The 133 bus route serves the area. As an open meeting, it welcomes family, friends and anyone with an interest in recovery alongside those with a desire to stop using, offering a Monday evening option in a part of Essex without a large number of alternatives.
