About this meeting
West Heath St John's Fisher meets on Friday evenings at 8pm at St John Fisher RC Church, 1 Cofton Road, giving this corner of south Birmingham an end-of-week meeting to bookend the Tuesday night group at the same church. It is a closed meeting, reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking or who think they might; that is the only requirement, and newcomers are always welcome. Friday evenings can be a testing time for anyone trying to stay away from a drink, which makes this a practical slot. The meeting lasts an hour and a half, is entirely free, and needs no booking. The church is wheelchair accessible.
