FANCY getting to know your neighbours a little better?
Organisers for The Big Lunch, the biggest annual get-together for neighbours, want Barnsley residents to join thousands of communities across the country who will be holding local events and street parties on Sunday, June 1.
Now in its sixth year, the simple idea aims to provide neighbours with an opportunity to get to know one another better.
For those wanting to get involved, free packs are now available from www.thebiglunch.com. These include invitations and posters as well as seeds, bunting templates and an inspiration booklet with ideas and information on how to get started.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
