About us

We help Sheffield’s hospitals, community teams, mental health and specialist services to cover costs their NHS budgets can’t. We fund support for patients and staff, life-changing research and more, so that we can enhance care from birth to the end of life and everything in between. We provide additional funding to Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Sheffield Health Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust who support people at every stage on life’s journey. From welcoming babies into the world on the Jessop Wing, supporting cancer care at Weston Park, specialist care at the Royal Hallamshire, Charles Clifford and the Northern General, to improving the mental, physical and social wellbeing of people in our communities. Somewhere along the line, our funding is likely to have helped you or someone you love. As well as funding provisions for patients, our grants also contribute to training, equipment and wellbeing projects for NHS professionals. By looking after the staff and services at the centre of patient care, we’re making sure they’re ready to look after you. The work we fund is only possible through generous donations, fundraising events, corporate support and a coming together of our community. With your help, we’ll make sure that the care you and your loved ones receive is the best it can be.

  • Our senior team joined Dame Nicole Jacobs at the round table with IDAS (Independent Domestic Abuse Service) to discuss how we can accelerate our REACH project. REACH supports our NHS staff impacted by domestic abuse. It’s a project we wish wasn’t needed. But it is. And we are determined to ensure the right support is in place for our colleagues 💙

    On Friday, 16 October, we brought together senior leaders and partners in Sheffield, alongside the Domestic Abuse Commissioner, Dame Nicole Jacobs, to discuss how we can drive culture change around domestic abuse impacting NHS staff. The event was an opportunity to discuss REACH, an ambitious partnership project to support NHS staff at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Sheffield Health Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust who are subjected to domestic abuse while also helping NHS Trusts to strengthen their workplace response. REACH combines confidential support for staff with training, awareness raising and culture change to ensure domestic abuse is recognised and responded to appropriately. The project has been made possible through funding and support from Sheffield Hospitals Charity. The project is delivered by the IDAS team. Our discussions reinforced a clear message: REACH is needed, and leadership support is essential to making lasting change. We heard why staff need to feel able to seek support, explored the barriers that can make this difficult, and discussed how organisations can build domestic abuse awareness and appropriate responses into everyday workplace practice. A survey carried out as part of REACH found that 33% of NHS staff surveyed had experienced domestic abuse, while 43% knew a colleague who had experienced domestic abuse. With senior leadership support, we can work together to embed REACH across both NHS trusts, helping ensure staff know where to find information, how to access support and how to support colleagues. Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, insight and experience. We look forward to continuing this work together.

  • 🦋 Families are invited to spend some time remembering their baby, write their name on a memorial butterfly if they wish, and enjoy a moment of peace and reflection. Staff will be available to talk to and refreshments will be provided. Every baby is remembered, every family matters, and no one should navigate loss alone 🤍

    🐉 Could Sheffield’s business community help unlock the next big idea in healthcare? Our Charity of the Year, Sheffield Hospitals Charity, is launching Sheffield Dragons – a new membership network connecting businesses and individuals with healthcare innovation taking place across the city. The network will support the charity’s Dragons’ Den Innovation Fund, which gives staff at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals the opportunity to develop and test ideas that could improve care for patients, families and colleagues. And relatively small investments can have a significant impact. One project, Snore Safe, received around £7,000 through the fund and, in its first seven months, helped free up critical care capacity worth approximately £130,000. Now, Sheffield Dragons aims to create a community around that innovation – giving members the opportunity to follow projects from their earliest stages through to seeing the difference they make. unLTD spoke to Sheffield Hospitals Charity’s Greg V. and Rosie Memory about the thinking behind Sheffield Dragons, some of the innovations already supported and why they want businesses to see getting involved as a partnership rather than simply a donation. 💬 “When businesses invest in better healthcare in Sheffield, they’re potentially investing in something that could benefit their own staff, colleagues and families.” 👉 Read the full interview and find out how to become a Sheffield Dragon: https://lnkd.in/eMZvfhup #SheffieldDragons #SheffieldHospitalsCharity #HealthcareInnovation #Sheffield #SouthYorkshireBusiness

  • This Baby Loss Awareness Week, we remember all the babies who are loved and missed every day 🤍 We’re proud to fund a free, 18-month creative activities programme for mums and co-parents who have experienced late-pregnancy loss, stillbirth or neonatal death. The programme offers the chance to explore creativity, learn new skills and make something meaningful for yourself, at your own pace. Co-designed with people with lived experience, the programme recognises that everyone’s journey is different. If you’d like to find out more, please get in touch with Arts in Health. Thinking of all the families remembering their babies this week. 🤍

  • Congratulations Tom 🥳 we're so excited to watch you thrive in this role too!

    I think it's fair to say we all love it when our colleagues have the opportunity to move forward in their career. A bit like Tom here who, after joining Sheffield Hospitals Charity as a Fundraising Assistant, has this week moved into the role of Community Fundraising Officer. Tom joined us with a deep appreciation for Sheffield’s NHS from his previous roles at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, alongside a genuine enthusiasm for learning about fundraising. Since then, he’s become such a trusted and valued part of the team. He’s really committed to the cause, and we’re lucky to have him. Nice one, Tom.
