THE water at the Metrodome will be turning pink today to kick off the countdown to the first Race for Life in Barnsley.
Cancer Research UK is bringing Race for Life to Locke Park on July 4 and is hosting a pink pool party at the Calypso Cove waterpark featuring a DJ playing hits from the poolside.
Harry Hardicker, area events manager for Cancer Research UK, said he hoped the event would encourage people to sign up to take part in the race. “It’s the first time we’ve brought Race for Life to Barnsley and this is the launch of our campaign to get people involved,” he said.
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."
