Party Animal?

Looking forward to another girls' night out?

Can’t stop at one?

Who We Are

We are a local group of the Ipswich District members of Alcoholics Anonymous. Our volunteers live in your community, know what you are going through and know how sharing their own personal stories can help you become sober. Our members come from all walks of life and we can put you in touch with someone who understands your own situation. We have both male and female helpers.

We offer meetings every day, either one-on-one or in group meetings.
