The Road Of Happy Destiny meets on Friday evenings at eight o'clock at St John Ambulance Hall on Llanarth Road in Pontllanfraith, near Blackwood, running for an hour. The name is drawn from a well-known passage in AA literature describing life after taking the steps, and the meeting uses it as a loose theme for sharing among people with a desire to stop drinking. It is a closed meeting, kept for those pursuing their own recovery from alcohol rather than open to family, friends or professionals wishing to observe. The hall is wheelchair accessible, so getting in and finding a seat should be straightforward. There is no charge and no need to book ahead, you simply arrive shortly before eight and settle in among a familiar Friday-night group.
