THESE are the photographs showing the difference generous Barnsley mums and dads have made to thousands of children in Africa.
As these photographs show - children throughout the Arusha area in Tanzania have now got uniforms and that means they will be allowed to get an education.
Without a uniform no child is allowed to go to school. A huge 3,500 uniforms were donated by Barnsley folk.
Lisa Beckingham came up with the idea of asking parents to donate unwanted/outgrown uniforms. The 33-year-old teaching assistant has in the past done voluntary work in Africa hoped she might collect a few dozen uniforms.
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."
