Nottingham and Leicester AA

"...if drinking is costing you more than money, you have come to the right place."

This is the official site for Nottingham and Leicester Intergroup. Its aim is to provide information about Alcoholics Anonymous(AA), what to expect from us and where to find our local meetings in Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire. We are happy you are here.

If you would like to talk about your drinking to a recovering alcoholic who knows exactly how you feel then telephone:

---

0115 941 7100

8.00 am - midnight

These telephones are manned by volunteers who will be happy to answer your questions, or put you in touch with those who can.

How can I contact A.A.?

In Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, or Derbyshire, call 0115 941 7100 8:00 - midnight. Otherwise, look for Alcoholics Anonymous in your local telephone directory. In many places a local A.A. number is also included in the useful numbers section. These telephones are manned by volunteers who will be happy to answer your questions, or put you in touch with those who can. If there is no A.A. telephone service close to you, write or phone the A.A. General Service Office for Great Britain.

AA members view alcoholism as a progressive illness, with a combination of a physical addiction to, and a mental obsession with alcohol.

How we describe ourselves

ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.

• The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions.
• A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes.
• Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
