The #GivingTuesday hashtag is trending - but what is it, where did it come from and what are people doing?

It is Lancashire Day, a day when all things Red Rose are celebrated across the county and a number of organisations, Lancastrians and others from beyond the county borders have taken to Twitter to celebrate.

The official day has been celebrated since 1996, the year after the then MP for Bolton, Peter Thurnham, mooted the idea in Parliament.

He suggested 27 November as it was on that day in 1295 when the first elected representatives from Lancashire were called to Westminster by King Edward I.

Martina Cox, whose husband Sean was attacked before Liverpool's Champions League semi-final against Roma in April, has spoken about how he "never came home"..

She says the attack lasted just 17 seconds - but those seconds will have a lifetime effect on the 53-year-old, who now cannot talk, walk or sit up unaided.

The father-of-three was assaulted by a Roma fan outside a pub metres from the stadium and less than an hour before kick-off.

According to Mrs Cox, her husband was struck at the back and side of the head and then he fell, receiving a third knock to the head on the ground, in what she calls a "life-changing, horrific fall".

Nobody has been convicted of the attack.

Tyson Fury could cause an upset against Deontay Wilder and Saturday's fight might be the start of something special , writes BBC Sport's Mike Costello.

The presence of fellow Mancunian Ricky Hatton in Fury's corner on Saturday night will serve as an indication of just how far the Gypsy King has travelled in his mission to reshape his mind, body, life, and career.

In poundage, Manchester's Fury has shed the equivalent of a peak-condition, light-welterweight Hatton since returning to training a year ago.

And like Hatton, Fury has had to deal with the torment which sometimes besets even those who appear to have it all.
