About this meeting

Portishead meets on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm at The Friends Meeting House, 11 St Mary's Road in Portishead, near Bristol, and runs for an hour and a quarter. It is an open meeting, which makes it a good first port of call whatever brings you: your own drinking, concern for a family member or friend, or professional interest in how Alcoholics Anonymous works. The meeting house is wheelchair accessible. Attendance is free and there is no booking or referral; people just arrive shortly before 7.30pm. Newcomers are not asked to speak, share or explain themselves, and listening from the back counts as fully taking part. The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking.
