DUDLEY Council House will be ‘going green’ tonight to celebrate the work of first aid charity St John Ambulance.

The Council House in Priory Road will be lit up to mark St John’s Day today (Friday June 24).

The day aims to highlight the work of the lifesaving charity, which teaches and provides first aid and emergency medical services and is staffed mainly by volunteers

Councillor Patrick Harley, leader of Dudley Council, said: "The St John Ambulance does incredible work, not just here in our borough but all over the world.

"We are delighted to be able to show our support as a council for all the work they do."
