On Wednesday evenings at 8pm, West End returns to Palmerston Place Church for another hour-and-a-half session, one of the busiest venues on the Edinburgh AA schedule with meetings running across several days. An evening slot in the middle of the week can suit members who want to break up the days between weekend meetings. It remains a closed meeting, meaning attendance is limited to those with a desire to stop drinking, the sole requirement for AA membership. As with the Monday session at the same address, wheelchair access has not been confirmed, so anyone with mobility needs should get in touch with the group in advance.
Can anyone come to this 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 charge, and is booking needed?
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 at this address, so it would be worth checking with the group ahead of your visit.
