THE Dickie Bird exhibition at Experience Barnsley has received more than 11,000 visitors since it opened in February.
The exhibition documenting Dickie’s life and career as a cricket umpire includes hundreds of items of cricket memorabilia, medals, photographs and letters from royalty.
Dickie told the Chronicle he was ‘stunned’ by just how popular it had been.
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."
