In conjunction with Dudley MBC and after extensive public consultation, West Midlands Historic Buildings Trust (WMHBT) has developed proposals to convert the chapels building to create rooms suitable for use by community organisations or as commercial offices. This will provide a regular income and a secure future for the building.
