About this meeting

Early Bird Newcomers meets on Saturday mornings at 9am at St Mary's Church on Vicarage Road in Staines-upon-Thames. As the name suggests, it is pitched particularly at people new to Alcoholics Anonymous, though it remains a closed meeting for anyone who feels they have a desire to stop drinking. The early Saturday slot gives newcomers a gentle, quiet start to the weekend before the day gets busy. The church is recorded as wheelchair accessible, which is worth knowing if mobility is a factor. There is no cost to attend and no need to book in advance, so you can simply arrive at Vicarage Road shortly before 9am.
