Sheffield to mark annual day of reflection
A memorial event to mark the second annual day of reflection to remember those who have lost their lives to Covid since the pandemic began is due to take place on Sunday 9 March.
The event will take place in Balm Green Gardens at the permanent Covid memorial willow and is an opportunity to come together to remember them and to honour the tireless work and acts of kindness shown during this unprecedented time.
At 12 noon, a minute’s silence will be led by Councillor Tom Hunt, Leader of Sheffield City Council.
Speakers at the memorial event include local community figures
and a recording will be played of someone who is living with long Covid. Everyone is welcome to attend and hear them share their experiences, talk about some of lasting impacts of the pandemic and invite those gathered to reflect.
A free creative workshop will run from 10.00 am until 2.00 pm and will provide a reflective space and an opportunity for those in attendance to express their tributes through a facilitated creative activity. Members of the public are invited to join local artists for this dropin activity, decorating wooden leaves to hang from the willow tree memorial, which was
made in Sheffield and designed by George King of George King Architects.
At 2.30pm there will be a screening of the ‘Stories from the Pandemic’ documentary film at The Showroom Cinema which features a collection of stories gathered from citizens across Sheffield over the course of the Covid-19 pandemic. After the film, attendees will be invited to join an optional facilitated reflective discussion in the cinema’s café and bar. Tickets are free and can be booked online via the Showroom Cinema.
Councillor Tom Hunt, Leader of Sheffield City Council said: “This is the second
year that we will come together to remember everyone who we have lost since the pandemic began five years ago.
We will reflect on the impact of the pandemic on all of us, and we will remember and honour the commitment, kindness and dedication of those who saved lives and looked after people during this incredibly difficult period.
“The permanent willow tree memorial is a place where anyone can come and reflect. We invite everyone to join us in Balm Green Gardens to remember family members, friends and colleagues.
“We acknowledge that Covid has had a disproportionate effect
on some people in our society more than others. We re-iterate our commitment to reflect their voices and reduce inequalities in our city. Our Fair Healthy Sheffield plan sets out our work to close the unfair gaps in length and quality of life by improving the health and wellbeing of those who are worst off.”
This annual day of reflection has been co-ordinated by Compassionate Sheffield and Sheffield City Council and OPUS Productions, the film producers of Sheffield’s ‘Stories from the Pandemic’.

Sheffield Wednesday Captain, Barry Bannan, hosted a sold-out fundraising event at Sheffield’s Mercure St Paul’s to raise vital funds for Sheffield Children’s. On the night over £60,000 was pledged for The Children’s
Hospital Charity and that number is still rising.
The second annual An Evening with Barry Bannan and Friends took place on Sunday 2 March, and played host to Sheffield Wednesday legends from the current squad as well as icons from days gone by.
The lineup included current Manager, Danny Rohl, and players Josh Windass, Liam Palmer, Callum Patterson, Lee Bullen, Daniel Pudil, John Sheridan, Ritchie Humphreys, Lee Gregory, and Pol Valentin, much to the delight of fans.
The event was compered by the legendary Steve
Bracknall and included a Q&A with the players, and a few special surprises.
Reverend and the Makers’ Jon McClure provided musical performances, and guests were treated to a surprise performance from Everley Pregnant Brothers who closed the night.
This year’s event follows the incredible success of the inaugural evening in 2024, which raised over £80,000 to help change lives at Sheffield Children’s.
The night is a continuation of Barry, Chris, and Jon’s ongoing support for Sheffield Children’s. Barry said, “I hold the
charity dear to my heart and the night is just about trying to raise as much money as we can to support Sheffield Children’s. The first year you don’t really know what you’re going to get, we didn’t know what to expect and it was amazing. It’s brilliant to do it all again and give something back.”
It was a Sheffield night through and through, with local legend and charity patron, Pete Mckee, in attendance, alongside members of Arctic Monkeys, Milburn, and Pulp. Pete produced the artwork for the event, and

News, Information and Advice
mobile phone savings
A consumer expert has advised people to check their mobile phone contracts after it emerged more than one third of pay-monthly mobile phone customers are out of contract.
According to reports over the weekend, the regulator Ofcom estimates that 37 per cent of all phone users are in line for new deals. Experts says customers should regularly check their bills and, if need be, vote with their feet and move to a new provider.
“The mobile phone market is full of providers which means that prices should be competitive,” they said. “Whilst customers are still within their contract period they have fewer choices but with nearly 4 in 10 users outside of their contract, they have the power to haggle for a better deal or move to a better deal. What is important is that consumers find out what their mobile phone usage is as it allows you to be on the front foot when it comes to negotiating the best deal for you, not the one which a salesperson tries to push you into.”
Here are top tips to get the best from your mobile phone contract: Review your current plan
Check your bill to see what you’re actually using, particularly how much data. If you’re paying for services you don’t use, downgrade to a cheaper plan. Contact your provider to what promotions or discounts are available. Switch to a cheaper carrier
Consider switching to an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) such as Smarty or Talk mobile. These use the same networks as major carriers but at lower prices.
Use Wi-Fi for calls and data
If you are on a contract with a fixed number of free calling minutes, use Wi-Fi calling instead of your mobile minutes. If possible, stick to Wi-Fi at
home and work to reduce mobile data usage. Apps like WhatsApp or Skype can also make calls and send texts over Wi-Fi for free.
Cut out unnecessary extras
Look at your insurance deal. Many phone provider insurance is more expensive than other third party providers and you could be covered on other policies. You should also cancel unused subscriptions like paid ringtones, voicemail transcription, or premium features. If you make international calls, use apps like Skype or make cheaper international calls using telediscount. co.uk
Monitor and reduce data usage
Set data limits or alerts on your phone to avoid overage fees. Download maps, music, and videos for offline use instead of streaming on mobile data.
Consider different plans
Buy your phone outright and opt for a SIM only plan which cost far less than contract plans. Pay as you go plans could also be more cost effective depending on how much you use your mobile. Take Advantage of Family or Group Plans. Many carriers offer discounts for multiple SIMS in the same household. If you’re on a solo plan, consider joining a family or friends’ plan to save money. Negotiate with your provider
Pick up the phone or use the live chat to contact customer service to request a better rate. If you don’t ask you definitely won’t get. Choose the option for ‘thinking of leaving us’ to be connected to the customer retentions department who will be empowered to offer you the best plans and discounts.
endometriosis action
Only 50% of young adults in the UK know what endometriosis is, and many health practitioners including GPs and A&E doctors don’t recognise the symptoms, resulting in missed opportunities to stop suffering and the disease progressing, as well as wasting NHS resources. This is despite it being one of the most common gynaecological conditions, affecting 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth from puberty to menopause in the UK – although the impact may be felt for life. The shocking lack of awareness and education is leaving those with the condition facing an average of almost 9 years for a diagnosis, leading to loss of education and work productivity, often impacting both physical and mental health. So Endometriosis UK is kicking off Action Month (1-31 March 2025) - Endometriosis Explained, by calling on Governments across the UK to commit to ensuring menstrual wellbeing education is implemented in all schools as well as improving education for all healthcare practitioners, including GPs, pharmacists, nurses and A&E doctors. Without this education, those with the disease will continue to face challenges in accessing the right care at the right time. Emma Cox, CEO for Endometriosis UK says: “The simple fact is that not enough people know what endometriosis is. Such a common and often debilitating disease deserves the same level of recognition as conditions like diabetes and asthma. A recent poll for Endometriosis UK has found that only 50% of 16 – 24-yearolds know what the condition is and 47% of people surveyed last year reported seeing a GP 10 or more times before being diagnosed. Not getting a diagnosis can have a significantly negative effect on every aspect of someone’s life - including education, employment, and physical as well as mental health. Governments must ensure that all young people and healthcare practitioners receive the appropriate level of education and recognise the signs and symptoms of endometriosis, so those with symptoms can seek
help, and are supported to access care when they do.
We hope Governments across the UK will build on their commitments to support women’s health, including ensuring menstrual health education is being properly delivered across all schools, as well as improvements in mandatory training for all health professionals, as a matter of priority. Without this, the next generation of those with endometriosis will continue to be let down.”
Endometriosis UK - the UK’s leading charity offering support for those with endometriosis is calling on all UK Governments to:
• ensure that menstrual health education is being delivered as a compulsory part of the curriculum in all schools, and that teachers have the training and resources they need to deliver it confidently and age appropriately. Too many young people are leaving school not knowing what is and isn’t normal for an average period, nor the signs of a menstrual health condition such as endometriosis. This is leading to young people missing school and education and impacting on the start of their careers.
• ensure that every healthcare practitioner receives effective education on menstrual health conditions including endometriosis, so that every healthcare practitioner recognises the signs and symptoms of endometriosis and follows the NICE Guideline on Endometriosis that sets a baseline of how endometriosis should be diagnosed, managed and treated.
Endometriosis UK wants to see a future where womencan better recognise the signs of endometriosis and feel empowered to seek help. And when they seek that help, healthcare practitioners are better equipped to put them on the right pathway for treatment and support in accordance with the NICE guidelines. A survey for Endometriosis UK last year found that 78% of respondents who later went on to receive a diagnosis had experienced one or more doctor telling them they were making a ‘fuss about nothing’ or similar comments.
crimestoppers warning
Independent charity Crimestoppers has launched a digital campaign to warn the public about the dangers of buying counterfeit goods.
Crimestoppers is especially warning communities of the risks of three categories of consumer goods that are either bought for personal use or commonly purchased as gifts, and are particularly dangerous:
• Fake cosmetics: contain harmful chemicals that may cause skin irritation, allergic reactions, or longterm health issues.
• Fake toys: often made with low-quality materials, they can contain toxic chemicals, loose parts, or sharp edges. Giving counterfeit toys to children can lead to choking, burns, hearing damage, or even strangulation.
• Fake electronics: unlikely to comply with manufacturing standards, making them prone to overheating, catching fire, causing burns, giving electric shocks, or even exploding.
More than 80% of counterfeit products recently tested by the government failed safety inspections, according to the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. And criminals are becoming increasingly skilled at finding new ways to deceive consumers. To help consumers avoid counterfeit goods the Crimestoppers has published guidance on how to tell if items for sale are genuine or not.
Signs to look out for include:
• Price – too good to be true: If the price seems unbelievably low, it’s likely a fake product that could be harmful and of very poor value.
• Suspicious websites and unusual sales locations: Untrusted websites and lesser-known outlets are common places for criminals to sell counterfeit goods. If someone is selling products from the back of a van, in a pub or club, it’s probably not genuine.
• Spelling and grammatical errors: Criminals often overlook small details, leading to spelling mistakes on their websites and product packaging.
• Differences in product or packaging: If the product you receive looks of poor quality and doesn’t match the original, it’s likely a fake.
• Missing information: If the product lacks information such as the batch number or the period-afteropening (PAO) symbol for cosmetics, safety certifications for toys, or warranty details for electronics, it’s probably counterfeit.
Mick Duthie Crimestoppers said “Buying fake goods might seem at first like a good way to save money, and a harmless way to get a bargain, but the reality is very different. Fake goods are often made badly, of poor quality materials. There is no quality control so the items are flimsy and will need to be replaced more often”
mr straw’s house re-opens
Following its annual winter conservation clean, Mr Straw’s House in Worksop will reopen to the public on Thursday 6 March. Most National Trust properties inspire thoughts of historic mansions, wealth, and grandeur. However, tucked away in a private cul-de-sac, you’ll find Mr Straw’s House; the National Trust’s first small domestic property, acquired in 1990. Mr Straw’s House is a preserved 1920s period home of a grocer’s family, virtually unchanged since the Straws moved there in 1923.
A true step back in time, visitors will discover more about the family who refused to modernise through spending time in the display rooms, hearing nostalgic stories, and getting a glimpse of some of the 30,000 treasured possessions and ordinary domestic items that can still be seen exactly where their owners left them. House and Collections Officer Danielle Lander-Brown says, “The theme in the house this year is ‘A simpler life at a slower pace: the Straws, their hobbies and technology’. Visitors can learn more about how the family
First established in 1865, Eric Eyre has personally looked after families in the local communities of Sheffield, Barnsley and Rotherham since 1955.
Operating from branches in High Green and Sheffield Lane Top we offer a bespoke funeral service upholding traditional values whilst progressing to cater for modern,
lived without many of the technologies we take for granted today as it’s revealed how they spent their leisure time without it”. She adds “Our dedicated team of volunteers also run a monthly walk around Worksop which gives an insight into the places where the Straws worked, worshipped, and wandered. It’s a fascinating tour for those who want to delve deeper into the lives of the family, and especially for those with an interest in the local history of the town”.
The house is open on Thursdays and Fridays from 6 March – 31 October, 09.00 – 15.00, as well as Saturdays during June and September. Admission is by prebooked timed self-led tours. Visits are in small groups of four people only, to help with the conservation work at the property.
Booking is through the Mr Straw’s House website at www.nationaltrust. org.uk/mrstrawshouse. Admission is £9 for adults, £4.50 for children and free to National Trust members. Car parking is available in the orchard opposite the house.

INDIE LEGENDS INCLUDING JAMES, CAST & MORE SCENE ANNOUNCED FOR FESTIVAL
Following the announcement of Queens of the Stone Age as festival openers, Rock N Roll Circus is back with more huge names to perform under the big top.
The multi-day event, renowned for blending world-class live music with an immersive circus experience, will feature James as the headliner on Sunday 31st August, alongside Ocean Colour Scene, Embrace, Cast, Sleeper, The Lilacs, and Girlband, promising one of the standout nights of the summer.
Rock N Roll Circus kicks off on Wednesday 27th August with the previously announced Queens of the Stone Age, who will also play a second date on Thursday 28th August.
Saturday 30th August will see Sheffield favourites Reverend & The Makers take centre stage,
before a huge closing night of classic indie on Sunday 31st August.
Fresh from a sell-out orchestral tour and celebrating over 40 years in music, James will bring their era-defining hits to Rock N Roll Circus. Fronted by Tim Booth, the Manchester icons have sold over 25 million albums worldwide, with anthems like Sit Down, Laid, and She’s A Star cementing their place as one of Britain’s most beloved live acts.
Also taking the stage are Britpop legends Ocean Colour Scene, whose classic tracks The Riverboat Song and The Day We Caught the Train remain fan favourites. Embrace, the Yorkshire-born band behind massive singalongs like All You Good Good People and Come Back to What You Know, will
also be part of the spectacular closing night.
With a career spanning over two decades, Embrace have firmly established themselves as one of the UK’s most enduring bands. Known for their anthemic sound and emotionally charged performances, they have released multiple top 10 albums and unforgettable singles such as Gravity and Ashes. Their set at Rock N Roll Circus promises to be an electrifying celebration of their legacy, packed with singalong moments that fans will not want to miss.
Also joining the Sunday billing is Cast, the Liverpool band responsible for 90s indie anthems Walkaway and Fine Time, alongside fellow Britpop favourites Sleeper, best known for hits like Sale of the Century
and Inbetweener. Rose Elinor Dougall (The Pipettes), bring their unique blend of indie and alternative rock, while rising stars The Lilacs and Girlband complete the line-up.
Beyond the incredible music, Rock N Roll Circus offers a festival experience unlike any other, combining top-tier live music with a unique travelling circus spectacle. Festivalgoers can expect aerial stunt performers, immersive circus acts, and an expanded food and drink village, all set within the magic of the Big Top and surrounding festival site.
Ali O’Reilly, Festival Director, said: “After the huge excitement around Queens of the Stone Age, we’re thrilled to announce yet another phenomenal night of music. James are one of the UK’s most celebrated live acts,
and alongside an incredible supporting cast, we know this will be an unforgettable night. Rock N Roll Circus is all about delivering a unique and immersive festival experience, and we can’t wait to bring it all to life this summer.”

Goals in both halves from Ben Brereton Diaz and Tyrese Campbell put United in command, and Wilder’s side then successfully navigated a potentially tricky last 20 minutes after Michael
Frey’s penalty reduced the deficit.
After the game, Wilder was brimming with pride as his side made it five straight Championship wins on the road.
He said: “I’m so proud of the players. We were so disappointed on Monday night, we deserved a little bit more, it was definitely not a 3-1 game. With the manner of how it went, late on,
we have had to suffer. I have to say we were all pretty down on Tuesday, and I want them to feel what it is like, and I want them to emotionally suffer a little bit because that shows that it means a lot.
“The reaction yet again has been first class, it has never been an easy place to come and in way I quite like it because it is nice and tight, it’s on top
and we were up against a very competitive team. We knew it wasn’t going to be straightforward, yet we managed to score a couple of super goals, they missed a couple of opportunities, and I’ve got to say second half we defended and did what we needed to do so maybe we learnt a lesson a little bit from what happened on Monday night.
“We still had a threat at the top of the pitch, Ty’s goal is an amazing one. We’ve done what we needed to do which was to get that win, that’s the reason why we have the best away record in the division and we’re proud of it and it’s something we need to hold on to if we are going to keep nudging our points total up.”

OWLS COME OUT ON TOP IN U18s DERBY
United’s Under 18s lost out in the Steel City derby as a first half looping effort from Joe Emery sealed the points for the hosts at Middlewood Road. It was a below par performance from the young Blades, with only Jevan Beattie and Zain Tahir testing the Wednesday goalkeeper either side of the break. Neither side really managed to fashion too much in terms of chances early on until Liam Clayton headed wide at the back post, but both goalkeepers remained largely untested.
That changed when Beattie saw a header well tipped over by Logan Stretch, before Coby

Hewitson got down to push away an effort from range from Caelan Cadamarteri.
The hosts though took the lead when a long ball from the back beat the Blades back line, Emery looping an effort over Hewitson for what would be the winner.
United tried to fashion some momentum after the break but it was the hosts who continued to create chances, Yisa Alao hitting the crossbar before Hewitson made another good save from close range.
The Blades did rally midway through the half as Tahir saw an effort held after a mazy run, while several good balls into the box were well dealt with by the hosts.
United continued to push late on into five minutes of stoppage time, but weren’t able to create a meaningful chance to find the equaliser.

he headed in Joe Powell’s corner. Rovers manager Inigo Calderon responded with a triple substitution just after the hour mark to spark the hosts into life.
His ploy paid dividends in the 72nd minute as Aston Villa loanee

A NEVER-ENDING STORY
Danny Röhl tagged Friday night’s defeat against Sunderland as a ‘never-ending story’.
Not for the first time this season, the Owls put on an enterprising performance at Hillsborough only to be undone at crucial stages and lose the game.
Coupled with key decisions that went the way of the visitors and two more injury concerns, it was a contest to forget for Wednesday.
Röhl told swfc.co.uk:
“I feel sad for my team because we invested so much, we had so much of the ball, we create chances but for me it was the never ending story.
“There is a smile on one side but big, big
disappointment on the other side, because the same things are happening.
“I think at first I look to ourselves. We made a fantastic game against a strong side, created good opportunities to score but conceded two easy goals.
“We tried everything, created good opportunities, but the goals we conceded are too easy, and this is more of the main point.
“If you take the result compared to the performance, I do not think this is a fair reflection.
“But these are the facts and we have to improve, we have to be better. Some decisions did not go for us, but it is football.
“If we get the penalty
we could go in 1-0 up at half time instead of 1-0 down from a goal that was a clear handball.”
On the injury front, Röhl was frustrated to see Max Lowe and goalscorer Callum Paterson forced from the action.
The Owls boss must wait for a verdict on the duo ahead of next Saturday’s long trip to Plymouth.
He said: “With Max, we will have a scan, hopefully it is okay, but we will see.
“If Pato goes out with a knock then it really means something because he is not a player that comes off with nothing.
“Hopefully, we cross the fingers, that it is not worse.”
