A PROJECT which helped Barnsley residents get online has closed after funding ran out.
The Get IT Together Barnsley project has over the last four years seen a team of tutors and volunteers deliver short courses, events and taster sessions to more than 2,000 people.
Alison Vint, project co-ordinator, said: "Whilst we are sad to be ending our work in Barnsley, we are confident there are other organisations who will continue this work and build on our success. I would especially like to thank all our project team for their enthusiasm and support over the years, and wish our learners continued success in getting more out of life online."
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."
