About this meeting
St Margaret's Church Hall on Commercial Street in Risca hosts a members-only Alcoholics Anonymous meeting every Sunday at 7pm, lasting about an hour. As a members-only meeting, it is for people with a desire to stop drinking rather than family, friends or professionals attending to observe, though anyone unsure whether the meeting is right for them is welcome to turn up and ask. The church hall is wheelchair accessible. Risca sits in the Ebbw valley in Caerphilly county borough, a few miles north of Newport, and this Sunday evening meeting gives AA members in the town a regular fixture at the end of the week.
