A FAMILY disco and barbecue has been organised to help towards a £50,000 appeal to save a Barnsley charity which sees people for problems including domestic abuse, mental health and low confidence.
Pathways Family Support Centre, based at Peel Parade, has helped thousands of people since it opened in 1994.
Up until the end of last year it had been funded almost entirely by the council. But the contract was tendered to another organisation and the funding ceased.
Pathways has been running on a Lottery grant which will soon run out. It is trying to raise £50,000 to give it enough time to apply for more funding.
The fundraising event will take place on June 30 from noon to 6pm at the Rose and Crown in Darton.
There will also be cake stalls, raffle, tombola, bouncy castle, henna tattoos and kids’ favourite characters.
Entry is free.
