THE Black Country Hippodrome group will hold a public meeting on Sunday (April 2) to update people on their progress.

Last year, the group got the keys to the building after signing a five-year lease with Dudley Council.

They hope to secure funding for their ambitious scheme to turn the dilapidated former theatre and bingo hall into a multi-entertainment complex.

The meeting will take place at the Station Hotel, Castle Hill, at 6.30pm.

Anyone can attend and the group will be happy to answer any questions people may have about the project.
