 the Dudley and Wolverhampton Mayoral charities
(information on these charities will appear
here when the new Mayors have been elected in May.
Promise Dreams is a registered children’s charity,

Whether the child would like a holiday,
 a toy, medical treatment or equipment,
 or even the chance to meet their favourite celebrity,
 Promise Dreams is dedicated and committed to help.
 10% of all funds raised will also be donated
 to both the Dudley and Wolverhampton Mayoral charities.
We cannot do this without your help.
 By supporting the charities and taking part in the Walk
of the Black Country you will be making a real difference
 to the lives of local people across our region, when they need it .most.
