THE future of the Barnsley War memorials Project hangs in the balance due to a lack of active committee members.
The project was formally set up about two years ago. One of its aims is to create a single roll of honour for any serviceman or woman who has a connection to Barnsley and lost their lives in any conflict or war - focussing first on the First World War.
Much of that work has been done but there is still a way to go.
Now with just months to go before the centenary of the Battle of the Somme, the organisation is floundering with no chairman and just a handful of committee members.
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."
