MORE than £40,000 has been raised for the Tiny Hearts Appeal by people putting money in the incubator at Barnsley Hospital’s main entrance.
The appeal aims to raise £1m for a new special care baby unit at the hospital, and the incubator is a place where people can donate their loose change or notes.
Since the appeal was launched in 2014, the figure has risen to more than £40,000.
