A WOMBWELL woman was one of only eight childminders in the country invited to Westminster for as a thank you for her work from the Childcare Minister.
Tracy Abnett, from Sunbeams and Rainbows on Melville Street, was one of 120 early years professionals that childcare minister Sam Gyimah invited to the formal reception at Lancaster House, London.
Childcare minister Sam Gyimah said: "I am very proud of what Tracy has done to make sure parents from Barnsley can make the best possible childcare choices for their families."
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."
