Contact email and names

Which type of contact email are you registering the meeting with?(Required)

A PUBLIC contact email, to be published on the ACA UK website

A private contact email, only used by Intergroup serving officers to contact the meeting

⚠️ Due to the fellowship's vote in September 2023 we only accept non-personal emails as public contacts. For example: york.aca@mail.com. If you enter a personal email here - for example tony.a.12@mail.com - we will not accept it and will email you to let you know.

We ask that public contact emails are checked often, including the spam folder. Many meetings set up an auto-response so that newcomers are immediately sent the most commonly requested information.

If, in future, your meeting is not able to monitor this inbox, we request that you remove it from the website by changing to a private contact.

Please enter the contact email:(Required)

Attending Intergroup Meetings

ACA recommends that your meeting elects an Intergroup Representative (sometimes called a GSR) to attend ACA UK's monthly Intergroup meeting. Come and use your meeting's vote to shape the fellowship.

If your meeting doesn't have an elected Intergroup Representative then the meeting Secretary assumes this responsibility (Big Red Book p600).

ACA UK Intergroup takes place on Zoom on the 3rd Saturday of each month, 5 - 6pm. During or after the meeting, Intergroup Serving Officers stay online to offer support or answer any questions Intergroup Reps may have. Login details for Intergroup meetings are here

Opportunity to attend monthly Intergroup meetings(Required)

On behalf of this meeting I acknowledge this information

Response to contact from Intergroup and Meetings Admin

ACA UK Intergroup and Meetings Admin needs to be able to contact you about this meeting, and receive a response. We ask that as contact person for this meeting you acknowledge this responsibility and that, if we make reasonable efforts to contact you and this is not responded to, ACA UK may remove your meeting from the website 14 days after our last email to you. We will notify you of this action if removal occurs. If we have reason to believe that safeguarding issues are occurring connected to your meeting it is the fellowship's vote (June 2024) that we may remove your meeting from the ACA UK website prior to the 14 day period. You can read more about the delisting policy here.
