About this meeting

York There Is A Solution meets on Friday evenings at the same Friends Meeting House on Friargate, entered through the iron gate, and runs for about an hour. Unlike the Tuesday session held at the same venue, this is an open meeting, so anyone with a desire to stop drinking is welcome to attend, including people new to AA. The Friday evening slot gives the Friargate venue a second weekly meeting with a broader welcome than its members-only counterpart. Accessibility details for the building have not been supplied, so attendees with specific access needs may wish to enquire with the group ahead of time.
