About this meeting

Ramsbottom Big Book Study meets on Monday evenings at 7.30pm at St Pauls Church on Bridge Street in Ramsbottom, north of Bury, and runs for an hour and a half. The meeting studies Alcoholics Anonymous, the 'Big Book' that gives the fellowship its name, reading it closely and discussing how its programme of recovery works in practice. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including family members, friends and professionals; you do not need to own a copy of the book to come along. The church is listed as wheelchair accessible, and the same group runs a Step 11 meeting here on Fridays. Attendance is free with no booking required.

Common questions

Do I need to bring a Big Book?

No. You can simply come and listen. If you stick around, most groups can help you get a copy of the book, but nothing is required for a first visit.

Can I attend if I am not an alcoholic?

Yes. This is an open meeting, welcoming relatives, friends, professionals and anyone curious about how AA works, alongside people concerned about their own drinking.

Is the church accessible and is there a charge?

St Pauls Church on Bridge Street is listed as wheelchair accessible, and the meeting is free. It runs from 7.30pm to 9pm on Mondays.
