STUDENT Emma Louise Fielding flew the flag for Barnsley - by wearing a dress made out of four copies of the Chronicle to the final of a beauty pageant.
Emma, 19, was a finalist at the Miss South Yorkshire competition in Sheffield on Friday.
For the 'eco' section of the competition, Emma enlisted the help of her best friend to make the dress out of town editions of the Chronicle.
The full story is carried in all editions of the Barnsley Chronicle, dated February 21.
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."
