About this meeting

Friday lunchtimes at 1pm, West End meets at 10 Palmerston Place for around an hour, offering a way to end the working week with a meeting before the evening's plans begin. It joins a full week of West End sessions run from Palmerston Place Church, several with slightly different addresses recorded depending on the entrance used. As a closed AA meeting, it is for those with a desire to stop drinking, the same requirement that applies to every session in the West End programme. Wheelchair access for this particular address has not been confirmed, so it would be worth checking with the group beforehand if needed.

Common questions

Who can attend this Friday lunchtime meeting?

As a closed meeting, attendance is limited to those with a desire to stop drinking, which is AA's only membership requirement. It is not restricted by age, background or how long someone has been sober, and newcomers are actively encouraged to come along.

Is there a cost, or do I need to book?

No, it is completely free and there is no need to book or register in advance. Simply arrive for the start time and take a seat; AA meetings run on voluntary donations towards room hire and literature, but nobody is asked to pay to attend.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

This has not been confirmed for this address, so check with the group directly if step-free access is required.
