About this meeting
Rayleigh Lunchtime Recovery meets every Tuesday at 1pm in the Bethenay Room at Our Lady of Ransom RC Church, 50 London Hill, Rayleigh, and runs for a generous hour and a half. It is an open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, welcoming anyone: people who want to stop drinking, family and friends who want to support them, and professionals who want to learn. The church is wheelchair accessible. For anyone in the Rayleigh area who cannot get out in the evenings, or who finds daytime meetings calmer, this fills the middle of the week nicely, and the same room hosts a Thursday evening meeting for those who prefer after-work times. It is free and needs no booking.
