About this meeting
In the village of Ringmer, a few miles outside Lewes, Ringmer Big Book Study meets on Tuesdays at 12.30pm in St Mary's Church Room on Vicarage Way. The meeting lasts an hour and a half and works through Alcoholics Anonymous, the fellowship's core text, chapter by chapter, with members sharing how it maps onto their own experience. It is a closed meeting, kept for people who have a desire to stop drinking; that is the only condition, and wondering whether you belong is usually a sign that you do. The church room is wheelchair accessible, and a chit system means attendance slips can be signed for court, probation or treatment services. It is free, with no booking required.
