TWO women from a care home in Barnsley are planning a host of activities in the hope to raise money for a new minibus.
Teresa Batty, 30 and Marie Sharp, 45, who work at Chapel View Care Home, Spark Lane, Mapplewell, are getting ready to take part in a five km fun run on Sunday, a 5km run at Rother Valley Community Park.
The pair are hoping to get as many donations as possible in order to raise the £30,000 needed for a new minibus they desperately need to take their residents out on day trips.
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."
