About this meeting

York's Saturday Al-Anon Family Groups meeting is held every week at 2pm in the Woolman Room at the Friends Meeting House on Friargate, just off Clifford Street. Al-Anon exists for anyone whose life is or has been affected by someone else's drinking, such as a partner, parent, adult child or friend, and the group is open to newcomers without any need to have attended before. Over an hour and a half, members talk about how they are coping and what has helped them, drawing on their own experience rather than giving advice. There is no requirement to bring along the person whose drinking prompted you to come. The meeting is free, informal and does not need to be booked ahead of time.

Common questions

Can anyone attend the York Saturday Al-Anon meeting?

Yes, it is open to anyone affected by someone else's drinking, including partners, parents, adult children and friends, and newcomers are welcome without prior attendance.

Do I have to bring the person who drinks with me?

No, Al-Anon is for your own wellbeing. Most members attend alone, and the person whose drinking affected them rarely, if ever, comes to the meeting.

What does it cost and do I need to book?

Nothing, and there is no booking. Simply come to the Woolman Room at the Friends Meeting House on Friargate for 2pm on Saturday.
