St Christopher's Church on Moorgate Avenue in Withington, Manchester, holds an Al-Anon Family Groups meeting every Thursday at 7.30pm. Al-Anon is for anyone whose life is or has been affected by someone else's drinking, including partners, parents, adult children and friends, and it makes no difference whether that person is still drinking. The meeting is open, so newcomers can attend without having been before, and there is no need to bring the person whose drinking affected you along with you. Over an hour and a half, members share their own experience of coping and recovering. It is free to attend, with no booking required.
Who is the Withington Al-Anon meeting for?
