A GROUP of people from Hemingfield raised more than £2,000 by completing a military-style assault course.
The gang of 12, were galvanised into action to raise money for Sheffield Children's Hospital after local lad, Jack Palmer, eight, received treatment there for leukaemia.
Jack's dad, Shane, of Tingle Bridge Lane, was one of those who took part in the course, which raised a total of £2,308.
Jack himself handed over the cheque to the charity ward at a specially arranged assembly at The Ellis Church of England Primary School in Hemingfield, where he is a pupil.
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."
