Exploring different sponsorship approaches
22nd January 1pm – 3:30pm GMT
(Doors open 12:30, there will be a 15 minute comfort break)
Are you looking for a sponsor?
Are you wondering if you’re ready to be a sponsor?
Are you looking for new sponsees?
Come along to listen and share your experience, strength and hope about being a sponsee, a sponsor or being in a step group.
This workshop is an introduction to the various ways of sponsorship, and not necessarily the place where you will find a sponsor. People will share how they found a sponsor. You have to do your part. Finding a sponsor is an active process within Recovery. We have to investigate our own route to acquiring a sponsor through attending weekly meetings, doing service in a
home group and joining WhatsApp groups (see below).
No Registration required to attend this event. Zoom limit of 100 people
Next date: These workshops will run quarterly and these dates will be shared.
Format: a CoDA meeting with a 15 minute break
Only CoDA speakers. Only CoDA approved literature.
No entrance fee. 7th Tradition donated to National Committee.

“I bought the “Kindle” version of the 12 & 12 CoDA workbook. Unfortunately, It doesn’t have full Kindle capabilities such as increasing font size and word wrap; it’s really just a glorified PDF . So it’s worth getting the actual book.”
