Festive football fun at Sheffield Children’s!

Players from Sheffield United Football Club’s men’s and women’s teams took a break from their busy winter schedule to spread Christmas cheer at Sheffield Children’s Hospital and The Becton Centre for Children and Young People. They paid a visit to many of our families, chatting all things Christmas, Fortnite and, of course, football!

The team gave out fabulous gifts, had a kickaround with some of our patients and even got involved in an intense videogame with children and young people on our dedicated neurosciences Ward!

Thank you for visiting us, Blades! We know that you’ve made some new fans following your visit too 😊
