About this meeting
The We Do Recover group of Narcotics Anonymous gathers every Thursday evening in the Basement Room at St Swithun's Church on Hither Green Lane, Lewisham. To find the meeting door, head down St Swithun's Road and turn left onto Theodore Road — the entrance sits at the back of the church rather than the main front doors. Running from 7.30pm for an hour and a half, this is a candlelight meeting with a speaker sharing their experience, which tends to make for a calm, reflective atmosphere. As an open meeting, it welcomes anyone curious about NA, whether you're attending for yourself or supporting someone else. No need to phone ahead or sign up; just turn up a few minutes early and take a seat.
Common questions
Who can come to this meeting?
This is an open Narcotics Anonymous meeting, so anyone is welcome — including family, friends, and professionals. The only requirement for NA membership itself is a desire to stop using drugs, but open meetings like this one are happy to have observers and supporters too.
Do I need to book or pay anything?
No. There's no booking, no fee, and no need to give your details. NA meetings are free to attend and self-supporting through voluntary contributions from members. Simply arrive a little before 7.30pm.
Where exactly is the meeting door?
The entrance is at the back of St Swithun's Church, not the main doors. Go down St Swithun's Road, then turn left onto Theodore Road, and you'll find the door leading to the Basement Room.
