About this meeting

Theydon First meets on Friday evenings at 7.15pm at Theydon Bois Baptist Church on The Green in Theydon Bois, near Epping. An open Alcoholics Anonymous meeting lasting an hour and a quarter, it welcomes anyone: people worried about their drinking, established members, and relatives, friends or professionals who want to see how AA works at first hand. The church is wheelchair accessible. If Friday does not suit, the same venue hosts a sister meeting, Theydon Promises, on Tuesday evenings at the same time. Nothing needs arranging in advance; attendance is free, no booking is taken, and you can slip in and just listen if that feels more comfortable than speaking.
