Pundits and ex-footballers Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright will take to the stage at Aviva Studios, the home of Factory International in Manchester on Thursday 28th November for a night no sports fans will want to miss.
The exclusive live show is to raise money for St Ann’s Hospice’s Build it Together appeal. The appeal is to build a new hospice in Heald Green for the people of Greater Manchester.
The Overlap team – widely regarded as TV’s top pundits – will lift the lid on their celebrated playing careers as well as delve deep into today’s hottest sporting issues and fielding questions from the audience. Expect insightful opinion, glorious banter, hysterical tales… and, yes, more than the odd heated exchange as these old adversaries go head-to-head!
Since launching in April 2021, Gary Neville’s The Overlap has topped an astonishing 64 million views, one billion impressions and now boasts 473,000 subscribers.
The hospice is raising money to build a new purpose-built hospice to replace the current Victorian building. St Ann’s new hospice will be a complete care facility in Greater Manchester that local people can access, from diagnosis of a life-limiting illness to treatment and beyond. It will be located on land next door to the current Heald Green hospice on St Ann’s Road North.
The new building will house a 27-bed inpatient unit including individual en-suite rooms and access to private outdoor terraces. The development will also feature modern outpatient and day therapy services, dedicated bereavement and family support spaces, all surrounded by beautiful, landscaped gardens.
Gary Neville said: “As soon as we heard about the Build it Together campaign we wanted to do everything we could to support St Ann’s Hospice and their fundraising.
“Being able to bring The Overlap to the event is going to be brilliant and I can’t wait to get Jamie, Ian, Jill and Roy on stage for this incredible cause.”
