A RESTORED Spitfire flew over Barnsley Hospital to pay tribute to the NHS and its staff.
The flyover took place on Saturday and was organised by the Aircraft Restoration Company who wanted to commemorate the 72nd anniversary of the NHS and recognise the courage of frontline staff.
The words ‘Thank U NHS’ were painted on the underside of the plane, and there are plans to write up to 80,000 names of nominated heroes to help commemorate their hard work during the pandemic.
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."
