On Thursday at 8pm, Barrack Street in Loughrea is home to another Temperance Hall meeting, one of three each week held by this Alcoholics Anonymous group. Like the group's other meetings, this one is for AA members only, kept for those with a desire to stop drinking rather than as an open meeting for the wider community. There is no cost and no need to register beforehand, so anyone who fits that description can simply come along before 8pm and take a seat. The format follows the usual AA pattern of a reading, then sharing, with people free to talk about their own experience or stay quiet. The venue's wheelchair access has not been confirmed, so it is worth checking directly if this matters to you. Temperance Hall remains a familiar meeting point for the local fellowship.
Is the Thursday meeting at Temperance Hall open to everyone?
No, it is a members meeting for people with a desire to stop drinking, not an open meeting for the general public or professionals.
Do I need to pay or register in advance?
No payment or registration is needed. Just arrive a few minutes before 8pm and take a seat.
What happens if I have never been to an AA meeting before?
You will still be welcome if you have a desire to stop drinking. The meeting follows a short reading and then sharing, and you can speak or simply listen.
