TINY hearts have been given a big boost thanks to a bunch of mums who organised a charity event at the Civic.
Scores of parents, grandparents and little ones turned out for the baby and children's event organised by Kiddie Kaboodle, where they could buy or sell baby and children's items and find out about local children's events.
It was held to benefit the Tiny Hearts Appeal, which aims to raise £1m to support the development of a new special care baby unit at Barnsley Hospital.

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."
