About this meeting

Every Tuesday at 7pm, a Big Book study meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous takes place in the Sunshine Room attached to the community centre on Hillside in Stowmarket. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and works through the AA Big Book chapter by chapter, with members reading passages aloud and sharing how the text relates to their own recovery. It is a members-only meeting, so it is intended for those with a desire to stop drinking rather than as an open discussion for supporters. The room is wheelchair accessible. Stowmarket sits in mid-Suffolk, and this meeting is one of two AA groups using the same Hillside venue during the week, alongside a Thursday session.
