We
have received further allegations with reference to the Derby City
meetings. These include forms of personal abuse, interference with
prescribed medication, and that the Derby City group promotes itself
to the detriment of other groups in the area. Our source requested
that the details not be published on the site. We would however be
interested to hear from any members who can provide any further
(publishable) evidence to support (or rebut) these allegations
(preferably in the form of personal testimony and/or documentary
evidence).

PS
We've recently checked out the AA GB website – the ONLY official
website for AA in the country. For at least FOUR days now the
Starter Pack section of the site (which carries links to the relevant
pamphlets) has been inoperative. On clicking the links the message:
“The system cannot find the path specified.” is
displayed. What this means is that there is nothing there!
Apparently the webmasters are currently substituting pdf links for
html links for documents throughout the site but have failed to do so
for this section. The documents themselves are available (if you
look closely) under the Members' Area - then under Service - THEN
under Document Library - and THEN
under Newcomers
starter pack Pdfs – not exactly easily accessible! We estimate it
would take about 5 minutes to rectify the problem! So what's going
on?

The Share section of the same website contains the following spelling
error: “possitive” for “positive”. Remember this website is:
“created and maintained by The General Service Board of Alcoholics
Anonymous (Great Britain) Ltd. through The General Service Office of
Great Britain.”

This is the public face of Alcoholics Anonymous (Great Britain) on
the web! Use a spell check!
