About this meeting
The First Derry group's Sunday meeting runs earlier than most, starting at 3pm at Rossdowney House on Glendermott Road in Waterside, Derry. It has no set format, so members generally use the time for open sharing about their own recovery. As with the group's other sessions, it is closed, meaning it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking rather than being open to family or friends. The afternoon slot can suit those who prefer not to attend in the evening. There is no cost involved and no booking system, so anyone who fits the closed criteria can simply arrive before 3pm. Wheelchair access to Rossdowney House has not been confirmed.
