About this meeting
Winsford Big Book Study meets on Wednesday evenings at 8pm at St Joseph's RC Church, 2 Woodford Lane, in this mid-Cheshire town. The group devotes an hour and a half to the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, reading the text and sharing on how it applies to everyday sobriety, which makes it a substantial midweek meeting for anyone wanting to dig into the programme properly. It is a closed meeting, meaning it is for people who have, or think they may have, a desire to stop drinking. The church is wheelchair accessible. There is nothing to pay and no booking system; simply come along on Wednesday and arrive a few minutes before the 8pm start.
Common questions
Is this meeting suitable for a first-timer?

Who can attend a closed meeting?
Anyone who has, or thinks they may have, a desire to stop drinking. Family and friends are asked to attend an open AA meeting instead.

St Joseph's RC Church on Woodford Lane is wheelchair accessible, and the meeting is free with no booking needed.
