About this meeting
Ringwood ACA Meeting Friday keeps the name of the group it began as but now meets online every Friday at 7.30pm, UK and Ireland time, and is joined from wherever members happen to be. It brings together adults whose childhoods were shaped by a parent's drinking or other family dysfunction, following the Adult Children of Alcoholics approach of understanding that experience rather than treating it as a habit to be stopped. The meeting is open, so friends, family members and professionals curious about the fellowship are welcome to sit in alongside those working the programme. There is no set format imposed on newcomers; you can arrive, listen, and decide in your own time whether to take part in the sharing.
