About this meeting

Every Friday at 8.15pm, a Gamblers Anonymous meeting is held in Southend-on-Sea, at Friends Meeting House on 18 Dundonald Drive. As an open meeting, anyone can come along, whether that is someone with a desire to stop gambling or a partner, parent, friend or colleague wanting to learn more. The fellowship's sole membership requirement is a desire to stop gambling, though that is not asked of anyone simply attending an open meeting. Expect the meeting to run for about two hours. Newcomers are welcome and do not need any previous experience of the fellowship. The meeting is free to attend, as is the case for every Gamblers Anonymous meeting. You don't need to book ahead, just come along on the night.

Common questions

No. It is an open meeting, so you do not need to be a member; newcomers, family and friends are all welcome to come along.

Do I need to register before turning up?

No registration is needed. You can simply turn up for 8.15pm on Friday.

How long does the meeting last?

It runs for two hours, starting at 8.15pm on a Friday.
