The Worcester Friday group meets at Ronkswood Community Centre on Canterbury Road, on the eastern side of the city, every Friday evening at 7.30pm. The meeting runs for an hour and a half and is a closed meeting, which in AA simply means it is kept for people who have, or think they might have, a desire to stop drinking. No referral, appointment or paperwork is needed; you can just turn up. The community centre is listed as wheelchair accessible. If Friday does not suit, Worcester also has an open Saturday morning meeting at the Horizon Community Centre on Midland Road and a Thursday evening group on Ombersley Road, so there is a choice across the week.
Who can attend the Worcester Friday meeting?
It is a closed AA meeting, which means it is for people who have a desire to stop drinking, or who think they might. You do not need to be certain you belong in AA. Family members or professionals wanting to observe would be better suited to an open meeting, such as the Saturday morning group in Worcester.
Does it cost anything, and do I need to book?
No. AA meetings are free and there is no booking or registration. A voluntary collection is usually passed around, but newcomers are not expected to contribute. Just arrive a few minutes before 7.30pm.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes, Ronkswood Community Centre is listed as wheelchair accessible for this meeting.
