About this meeting

Serenity provides a midday pause on Thursdays in Whitley Bay, meeting at 12 noon at The Big Local, 158 Whitley Road. A lunchtime meeting suits people who cannot get out in the evenings, and an hour in the middle of the day can steady the rest of it. This is a closed Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, which means it is reserved for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking; nothing more is asked, and you are welcome to sit and listen without speaking. The venue is wheelchair accessible. Like all AA meetings it is free, self-supporting through members' contributions, and there is no booking; just come along at noon.
