Tranent Step meets on Sunday evenings at 6.30pm, also in the Parish Church Hall on Church Street, for an hour. As its name suggests, the meeting takes a step-focused approach, working through the Twelve Steps rather than a general discussion or Big Book format, complementing the town's longer Thursday meeting. It is closed, for those with a desire to stop drinking rather than a public event, and turning up for the first time needs no introduction. The hall is wheelchair accessible. A Sunday evening slot can be a useful anchor at the end of the week before the working week begins again. Attendance is free and there is no booking system in place.
