About this meeting
The South Midlands Sunday Group meets each Sunday at 5pm in the Makespace Meeting Room on Aristotle Lane, Oxford. This is an Overeaters Anonymous gathering for anyone with a desire to stop eating compulsively. The format rotates through OA Steps and Traditions study, so the focus shifts week to week, giving members a chance to work through the programme together over time. If you're new and feeling unsure, you won't have to find your way in alone — someone will be waiting outside the building to welcome newcomers. It's a quiet, steady hour to round off the weekend among people who understand what compulsive eating feels like. No experience of OA is needed to come along and listen.
Common questions
Who can attend this meeting?
This is a closed OA meeting, which means it's for people who have a desire to stop eating compulsively. If that's you, you're welcome — there's no need to have attended before. Someone will be outside to greet newcomers on arrival.
Do I need to book, and is there a charge?
No booking is needed and there's no charge to attend. OA is self-supporting through members' own contributions, so a voluntary collection may be passed round, but you never have to give anything, especially at your first meeting.
What happens at the meeting?
The group studies the OA Steps and/or Traditions, with the focus varying week to week. Meetings run in English. You're welcome to simply sit and listen — no one is required to speak or share until they feel ready.
