AN AWARD winning voluntary project which has provided more than a decade of service to some of Barnsley’s most needy is facing closure following a funding crisis.
The Romero Support and Guidance Centre, based at St Helen’s Church in Athersley, is set to close its doors on August 10 ‘unless a miracle happens’ say the people who run it.
The centre deals with issues including problems with benefits, housing, debt, relationship problems, health issues, safeguarding children and vulnerable adults.
