About this meeting
The Severn Saturday Group meets every Saturday evening at 19:30 at The Octagon on Farmhill Lane, in the Paganhill area of Stroud. This Overeaters Anonymous group works from the Big Book, so expect a steady focus on the text and how members apply it to recovery from compulsive eating. It is an open meeting, which means anyone is welcome to sit in, whether you're new to OA, curious about the programme, or supporting someone who is. The venue has disabled access and a car park on site, along with an outside smoking area with a cigarette bin on the wall. If you're finding your feet, arriving a few minutes early gives you time to settle before the meeting begins.
