‘Something I hold dear’ – Sheffield Wednesday star highlights cause and admits surprise regarding Owls fans

Sheffield Wednesday’s Barry Bannan now hopes that his money-raising evening with The Children’s Hospital Charity will be a yearly event.

Over £75,000 was raised at ‘Barry Bannan and Friends’ last year as the Owls skipper teamed up with a number of local personalities to put on a brilliant night at the Mercure hotel in Sheffield city centre, and it was announced late last year that there was to be a follow up in March. That event is taking place this Sunday night, and Bannan can’t wait.
