RACES organised by Penistone Footpath Runners have raised a total of £400 to support the work of the Woodhead Mountain Rescue Team.
Popular events such as the Oxspring Hunshelf Amble, the Penistone 10k and the Hartcliffe Hill race benefit from the support of the rescue team, and at the Amble they provided treatment for a lady runner who had fallen and injured her knee.
Club chairman Steve Dickinson said: “The Woodhead Mountain Rescue Team is a voluntary organisation and do a wonderful job not only in our area but including helping at the floods in York.”
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."
