Earlier this year you told us that you wanted us to look at Adult Social Care as one of our priorities. If you or someone you know uses Social Care, ask them to fill in our new survey so we can explore in depth. The more people that fill in the survey, the more we can help make sure that the care you receive is the best it can be. Our survey closes on Friday 27th September.

ALT Join us for a Time Together Coffee Morning! If you live in the Central Area, come along to enjoy a cuppa, have a natter with like-minded people, and arrange to swap your skills with others in the group. If you aren’t already a member but are interested in joining, please stop by! What is Time Together? Time Together is a Timebanking project, where people who live in the Central Area help each other by swapping skills. Led by local people, members can exchange and trade their skills and time - one hour at a time. So for every hour you spend helping someone else, you can get an hour in return for someone to help you! When? Monday 19th August, 11am to 1pm. Where? Locke Park Cafe, Park Road, S70 1YG. Interested? Get in touch with Jo by phone on 07843 594308 or by email at [email protected]. Thanks to funding from Barnsley Council and Central Area Council.
