About this meeting
The Whitstable group of Alcoholics Anonymous meets every Wednesday evening at 8pm in the Narthex of St Alphege Church on the High Street, just inside the main door. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and follows a speaker format, in which a member shares their experience of drinking and recovery before the room opens up. It is an open meeting, so anyone may attend, including family members, friends and professionals who want to see how AA works. The venue is wheelchair accessible and there is provision for people who are hard of hearing. There is nothing to pay and no need to book; just come along on the night.
