00:00Hi there, it's John Blow here from the Yorkshire Post Features Team. I'm going to take you

00:04through some of the things coming up in the week ahead. So, first of all, politicians,

00:09business leaders, academics and the media will come together on Tuesday for the Great

00:14Northern Conference. Hosted by National World, which owns the Yorkshire Post, the conference

00:18at Doubletree by Hilton in Hull allows participants to debate and collaborate on how best to grow

00:24the economy and build a greener, fairer future for the North. Elsewhere, England's women

00:29footballers will take on Switzerland in a friendly Sheffield United's ground, Brommel

00:34Lane. That takes place on Tuesday with kick-off at 7.45pm. Switzerland are going to be hosting

00:42the Women's Euros 2025 and Tuesday's match will be England's last of 2024. The next fixtures

00:48will be with Portugal and Spain in February for the Women's Nations League. And the Princess

00:55of Wales will host her fourth Together at Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey.

00:59Friday's service will reflect on how much we need each other, especially in the most

01:05difficult times of our lives, said Kensington Palace last month. Kate's recovering from

01:10cancer and the service forms part of her gradual return to public duties.
