    Just a reminder for any supporters who are in Barnsley Hospital or Barnsley Hospice (or who have any relatives or friends who are), there is free full match commentary available for all Reds home matches on www.oakwellhospitalcommentaries.com, courtesy of the volunteers at Oakwell Hospital Commentaries.

    We have been providing this service since 1954, and we also provide free audio commentary to visually impaired listeners inside the Oakwell stadium via headsets which are available from the main reception at Oakwell.

    If you or anyone you know is currently in Barnsley Hospital or Barnsley Hospice, we can give you a mention on air if you email us at oakwellhospitalcommentaries@mail.com.

    Thanks Steve, it means a lot to know that the volunteers are appreciated. As I always say, even if only one person listens, we will have provided a valuable service.

    I listened to the game on this service, and enjoyed it very much. It was good quality commentary with no interruptions for other games, a very professional service. Well done and thanks to all concerned.

    Thanks for the feedback, it's nice to be appreciated for the voluntary work that we do. All feedback is appreciated, be it positive or negative. If it's negative, we will try and learn from any mistakes we may have made. If it's positive, then it's nice to know that we've made a small difference to someone who needs it.
