LATEST WTF 2026 Q1 Edition

The Newcomers Public Edition

Both  editions of  the WTF  (Where To Find an AA meeting) were sent to the printers in time for  the Q1 2026 Intergroup Meeting on Sunday 8th February 2026 at:

Park Life Centre,
Whipton Lane, Heavitree, Exeter EX1 3DN

https://parklifeheavitree.org.uk

The current revision date is now 08/02/26  The public edition is available now, as a pdf download: On This Link.  Please Note that the revision date of the download may be later than the print run date.

The revision date above indicates that all meetings changes received in the EComm email (ecomm.devonc@aamail.org) by that date have been applied to the online WTF.  These may not all be reflected in the printed WTF as each print run is confirmed in advance of the quarterly DCIG meetings.

The Members  Edition PDF

The Members (Confidential) PDF Edition is also kept up to date and available on request by email.  Just email your request to the EComm email:  (ecomm.devonc@aamail.org)

Continuous Updates

These PDF copies are continuously updated as changes are sent to the EComm email. So, downloading the Public Copy from the website or requesting the Members Copy and printing it or keeping it on your phone will give you the latest WTF meeting details.

Meetings Summary

In both WTF editions, there is a separate section for Zooms. This Online section lists both Zoom meetings and the Zoom details for any Hybrid meetings. Currently, we have 6 Online Meetings (1 Hybrid and 5 Zooms). There are 36 traditional meetings. So, we have a total of 36 (Trads and Hybrids) plus 5 Zoom only, for a total of 41 meetings.

Print Your Own Copy or Keep it on your Mobile

The downloadable pdf is a colour edition but will print very well in black and white. If you have a printer which can print on both sides, you can make a very decent WTF either in colour or B&W.  This PDF can also be kept on a mobile and use the mobile ‘zoom in’ to read it.

75 Years Of AA in Great Britain Video

For the 75th anniversary of AA in the UK, our General Service Office in York has produced a wonderful History of AA in the UK. The video opens with these words:

“For 75 Years AA GB has been working in these islands. Right from the start, they have been committed to supporting people in every walk of life, in every environment, in every place because the disease of alcoholism knows no frontiers, it knows no boundaries.  And over those 75 years AA GB has demonstrated time and time again that wherever it is needed it will go.”
