Residents invited to community meetings
Residents can find out what is happening in their area at public community meetings being held across the borough this month.
Dudley Council will host the ‘your home, your forum’ meetings throughout June.
The forums all start at 6.30pm and are informal, giving people the opportunity to have their say and discuss what is good about their local area and what can be made better.
Local councillors and a police representative will also be there for residents to talk to.
In Halesowen, on June 9, people living in Belle Vale, Hayley Green, Halesowen, Cradley and Wollescote are invited to a meeting at Halesowen Town Hall on Hagley Road.
The Dudley Central meeting will be held on June 16 at DY1 on Stafford Street.

Councillor Paul Bradley, deputy leader of the council, said:

“We would love to see as many people at the meetings as possible.”
