About this meeting
For early risers, Stratford-upon-Avon Early Birds meets on Wednesdays at 7.30am at the Methodist Church in Old Town, with the meeting entrance to the left and rear of the church building. The hour-long format is based on Daily Reflections, AA's book of short daily readings, with members sharing on the day's passage, and the early start means you can be done before work. It is an open meeting, so anyone is welcome, including family, friends and professionals. The venue is wheelchair accessible, provision is made for people with hearing difficulties, and there is ample parking. Free of charge and with no booking needed, it is a quietly practical way to start a Wednesday, whether you are long sober or just starting out.
