Many of us had one thing in common

We had reached a point where we could not stop

We know how it feels because we’ve all been there. We are all recovering addicts who stay clean and sober by helping each other to stay clean and sober.  And we have a lot of fun doing it.

You do not have to face this alone. If you want to stop the drink and drugs, or just think that you might want to, come along to our meetings – there are loads of them and you will be welcomed with open arms. Click the “Our Members” button to find out more about us. See you soon!

There are no dues or fees

It won't cost you a penny

We don’t charge a membership fee and we don’t ask for any details. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop taking cocaine and all other mind altering substances. No matter what you have been using, you are welcome to simply turn up at any meeting where you will be greeted with a nice cuppa, a friendly smile, and a lot of experience and understanding of what you are going through.

We do accept voluntary contributions at meetings, to cover expenses such as coffee, rent, literature and services to help those who are still suffering. But you are under no obligation to contribute.

In order to maintain our integrity and avoid any possible complications, we are not affiliated with any outside organisation, we do not accept donations from outside organisations or individuals, and we have no opinion on outside issues.

We are not affiliated with any rehabs, recovery houses or hospitals, but many do refer their patients to Cocaine Anonymous to maintain their sobriety.

And while C.A. is a spiritual program, we do not align ourselves with any religion. Instead our members are free to define their spirituality as they see fit.

We use the 12-Step Recovery programme

Because it really works

The only thing you've got to lose is your addiction

Our primary purpose is to stay free from cocaine and all other mind-altering substances and help others achieve the same freedom.

The members of Cocaine Anonymous will show you how to stay clean and sober, because this is an important part of our own recovery.  In fact the most effective way to attain and maintain sobriety is to work with others suffering from the same malady.

We use the twelve step recovery program because it has been working for people suffering with addiction to drink and drugs for nearly a century. It has worked for millions of people across the world, it has worked for us and it could work for you.  So climb on board. We’d love to see you.

The Twelve Steps_

The 12 steps describes the program of recovery used by Cocaine Anonymous

  1. We admitted we were powerless over cocaine and all other mind-altering substances – that our lives had become unmanageable.
  2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
  3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
  4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
  5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
  6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
  7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
  8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
  9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
  10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
  11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
  12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to addicts and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
