About this meeting
Steps & Traditions is Paignton's Wednesday morning meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, held at 11.30am at Paignton Baptist Church, 43 Winner Street. Over the hour the group studies the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, the principles that guide both personal recovery and the way AA groups run themselves, so it is a good meeting for understanding the programme in more depth. It is a closed meeting, kept to people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking; newcomers fitting that description are always welcome. The church is wheelchair accessible. As with the Tuesday meeting at the same venue, there is no charge and no need to book anything in advance.
