Getting there
About this meeting
Rathfarnham Parish Church of Ireland on Main Street, Rathfarnham, Dublin, holds an Al-Anon Family Groups meeting every Saturday at 12pm. Members are people affected by someone else's drinking rather than drinkers themselves, partners, parents, adult children, siblings and friends whose own wellbeing has been touched by it. This is an open meeting, meaning newcomers can walk in around midday, and the relative or friend who drinks does not need to be there, or to have agreed to anything first. The meeting lasts an hour and is free to attend, with no booking or referral needed. It is held weekly on Saturdays.
Common questions
Who is this meeting for?
Al-Anon Family Groups is for people whose own lives have been affected by someone else's drinking, partners, parents, adult children, brothers, sisters and friends, rather than for the person who drinks.
Do I need to bring the person whose drinking has affected me?
No. The meeting is for you, in your own right. Many people attend on their own and the relative or friend who drinks never needs to come along, or even know you are going.
Does it cost anything, and do I need to book?
It is free to attend and there is no need to book or register. The meeting is held weekly on Saturdays at 12pm and lasts an hour; just arrive for the start.
