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."
