Additionally helping: Gary Neville and Roman Abramovich The Warm-Up doesn’t own any hotels. We’re terrible at Monopoly. But if we did, we hope we’d be following the lead set by Gary Neville and Roman Abramovich and throwing the doors open to NHS staff. Neville, who co-owns two hotels with Ryan Giggs, is to shut them both down for ordinary commercial use but keep the staff working and offer them, free of charge, to NHS workers and medical professionals from around Manchester.
