PUPILS from Darton College are working with a club set up to tackle loneliness and isolation in older people.
Darton Voice, the name of the school’s student council, is showing its support for the newly established Afternoon Club set up with help from the Darton West Ward Alliance and the Barnsley branch of the Royal Voluntary Service.
The student council’s co-ordinator, Jason Gardner, said Darton Voice will be providing entertainment and activities for club members over a five week period.
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."
