Held every Tuesday evening at Holy Trinity Parish Church in Chesterton, this Overeaters Anonymous group meets in the church hall on Church Street, Newcastle-under-Lyme. The doors open from 6:30pm for an informal chat, giving newcomers and returning members a chance to settle in over a hot drink before things begin. The meeting itself runs from 7pm to 8pm, with the hall staying open until 8:30pm. This is a literature-based meeting, so readings from OA and shared recovery texts guide the discussion. It's a members' meeting, for anyone with a desire to stop eating compulsively. If you're nervous about a first visit, arriving early for the welcome chat is a gentle way to start. Neil is the local contact.
Who can come to this meeting?
This is a closed meeting, which means it's for people who have a desire to stop eating compulsively. If that's you, you're welcome, whether it's your first time or you're returning after a while away. There's no need to speak or share until you're ready.
Do I need to book, and is there a charge?
No booking is needed, so you can simply turn up. Overeaters Anonymous meetings are free to attend. Groups pass a basket for small voluntary contributions to cover costs like the room and refreshments, but you're never expected to give anything, especially as a newcomer.
When should I arrive, and what happens first?
The hall doors open at 6:30pm for an informal chat with hot drinks available, so arriving early is a relaxed way to meet people. The main meeting runs 7pm to 8pm, with the hall open until 8:30pm.
