About this meeting

Theydon Promises gathers on Tuesday evenings at 7.15pm at Theydon Bois Baptist Church on The Green in Theydon Bois, near Epping, for an hour and a quarter. The name nods to the Promises, the well-known passage in the Big Book describing what recovery can bring, and the meeting is open, so members, newcomers and supporters such as family and friends can all attend. Nobody is expected to speak on a first visit; plenty of people begin by listening. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this meeting, so check locally if that matters for you. It is free and unbooked: arrive shortly before the start on any Tuesday. A Friday meeting, Theydon First, is held at the same venue.

Common questions

Can I bring my partner or a friend for support?

Yes. Theydon Promises is an open meeting, which means family, friends and professionals are welcome alongside people who want to stop drinking.

What will it cost me?

Nothing. AA meetings are free, with no booking, referral or membership fee. Just turn up before 7.15pm on a Tuesday.

Is there wheelchair access at the church?

Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this meeting, so it is sensible to check locally if you need step-free entry. The Friday meeting at the same venue, Theydon First, is listed as accessible.
