West End meets on Monday evenings at 8pm at Palmerston Place Church, running for an hour and a half in Edinburgh's West End near Haymarket. It is one of several meetings sharing the West End name held at this church through the week, giving members plenty of choice over which day suits them. Being a closed meeting, it is for people with a desire to stop drinking, and that welcome extends to anyone new who fits the description. Wheelchair access to this address has not been confirmed, so it would be sensible to check with the group beforehand if step-free entry is something you need.
Who is welcome at the West End meeting?
This is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, which means it is for anyone with a desire to stop drinking rather than open to the general public. Newcomers are welcome as long as that describes them, including people early in sobriety or simply exploring whether AA is for them.
Is it free to attend, or should I book?
There is no charge and no booking system. You can turn up on the day without contacting anyone beforehand. A basket is usually passed round for voluntary donations to cover the room hire, but paying is never a condition of attending.
Is Palmerston Place Church wheelchair accessible?
This has not been confirmed for this address, so check directly with the group if step-free access matters to you.
