Access through gates on Wordsworth Rd
Stoke Newington Big Book meets every Tuesday at 7.30pm for about an hour at St Matthias Church on Wordsworth Road in Hackney, close to the Stoke Newington and Clissold Park area. Access to the meeting is through the gates on Wordsworth Road, which is a useful thing to know if you have not visited before, since the main church entrance is not the one used. As an open meeting, anyone can attend, whether they have a desire to stop drinking or simply want to support someone who does. True to its name, the group's focus is reading and discussing the Big Book together rather than open-topic sharing. Whether the venue is wheelchair accessible has not been confirmed, so it is worth checking ahead if this matters to you.
