MARKET trader Nick Smark is gearing up to cycle coast to coast to raise funds for Barnsley Hospice where his father in law is being cared for.
On August 21 Nick will take on the challenge of cycling 170 miles over three days from Morecambe to Bridlington.
Nick said: “I will be cycling in order to raise funds for Barnsley Hospice to say thank you for the fantastic care and support given by the palliative care team to my amazing father-in-law Derrick Davies, who is terminally ill.”
Nick is busy training for the challenge and hopes to raise £2,000 for the hospice.
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."
