On Thursday evenings, Latchford Baptist Church on Loushers Lane hosts one of Warrington's regular Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, starting at 7.30pm and lasting ninety minutes. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking or who think they might; nothing more is required, and nothing about the label stops a newcomer walking in on the night. Latchford sits between the town centre and Stockton Heath, so the meeting is handy for the south side of Warrington. The church is wheelchair accessible. There is no charge and no booking; if it is your first meeting, arriving ten minutes early gives you time to find the room and settle in.
What does closed mean for this meeting?
Closed means attendance is for people who have, or suspect they have, a desire to stop drinking. It is not a private club; newcomers in that position are welcome. Supporters can attend Warrington's open meetings, such as Friday at St James Church.
Do I need money or a booking?
Neither. The meeting is free and unbooked; just arrive at Latchford Baptist Church before 7.30pm on Thursday.
Is there wheelchair access?
Yes, the church is wheelchair accessible.
