    Gary Wainwright, aged 53, from Wadsley Bridge, proudly gave away his daughter Leanne, 29, as she tied the knot with childhood sweetheart Paul Clark at St Mary’s Church, Ecclesfield.

    The boiler salesman and cafe owner had his arm broken in four places and suffered severe nerve and muscle damage when he fended off a man wielding a three-foot Samurai sword in a bar in Tenerife on New Year’s Day.
