DUDLEY South residents can meet their new MP when he holds his first advice surgery on Saturday (May 23).

Mike Wood will be encouraging constituents to speak to him about their problems when he visits Kingswinford Community Centre from 10am to 12 noon and Wordsley Children's Centre from 5pm to 7pm on June 12.

The Dudley councillor, who represents the Pedmore and Stourbridge East ward, said: "I promised in my contract with the people of Dudley South that I would hold regular advice surgeries around the constituency and am pleased to be able to deliver on that pledge straight away.

"I am here to help everybody in Dudley South in whatever way I can, whichever way they voted on May 7, and so would encourage anybody who needs my support to get in touch and make an appointment for one of my surgeries."

Meetings are by appointment only and can be made by emailing mikej.wood.mp@parliament.uk or by calling 01384 913123.
