About this meeting
This Saturday morning meeting, Ripon Morning Speaker, is held at St John's Chapel on Bondgate and starts early at 8am, running for about an hour. It is an open AA meeting, so anyone with a desire to stop drinking is welcome, and the speaker format means one or more members typically share their own story at length rather than the meeting moving around the room. The group notes that there is no parking on site, so attendees travelling by car should plan to leave the vehicle nearby and walk the last stretch. The chapel is wheelchair accessible, making the early slot workable for those who need step-free entry.
