Yoxall Step meets on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm in the John Paul Room, found at the rear of St Francis de Sales Catholic Church on Wood Lane in Yoxall, near Burton-on-Trent, and runs for an hour and a half. Knowing to head around the back of the church saves confusion on a first visit. As a step meeting, it works through the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous as the basis for its reading and sharing. The meeting is closed, which means it is intended for people who have a desire to stop drinking, newcomers firmly included; supporters and professionals are pointed towards open meetings instead. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed here. It is free to attend and no booking is needed.
Where exactly is the meeting room?
The John Paul Room is at the rear of St Francis de Sales Catholic Church on Wood Lane, so go around the back of the church rather than through the main entrance.
Can newcomers come to a closed step meeting?
Yes. Closed simply means the meeting is for people with a desire to stop drinking, and newcomers are welcome. You can listen without sharing.
Does it cost anything?
No. Like every AA meeting it is free, with no booking or referral. Wheelchair access has not been confirmed for this venue, so check locally if you need it.
