About this meeting
The Wanstead Recovery Meeting is held at Wanstead Baptist Church on Welington Road every Monday at 7.30pm, running for an hour and a half. It is an open meeting, so children and family members are welcome alongside anyone with a desire to stop using drugs, though pets are not permitted inside. The format alternates weekly between a step chair and an experience, strength and hope chair, giving the group a mix of structured and reflective sessions. Sitting within Redbridge, the meeting draws people from across Wanstead and the surrounding area. Wheelchair access to the church has not been confirmed, so it would be worth checking in advance if this is important to you.
