Earlier this year, we announced that we’d been allocated funding to distribute to Sheffield’s voluntary and community sector. We’re delighted to share that we’re now working some brilliant local organisations to offer a diverse range of activities in the city.
The activities have been created to support adults in recovery (people who have, or are experiencing, mental health support needs, homelessness, domestic abuse, substance misuse, and/or contact with the criminal justice system) to flourish, do something they love, connect with others, learn new skills, and more.
What’s on offer?
We’re working with seven amazing organisations: Adira, Blend Kitchen, Bloom, Firvale Community Hub, Framework HA, Haven, and RiteTrax, and they’re offering a diverse range of activities – including poetry, music, hair and beauty, gardening and DJing.
Our partners are working across the city in Burngreave, Heeley, Gleadless Valley, Walkley, Nether Edge and Sharrow, and over 1,200 people will benefit from the Positive Activities on offer.
Taking part
Over the next few weeks, we’ll share more about the activities and how you can take part. In the meantime, please contact our partner organisations directly to find out more.
Join the team
We have an exciting opportunity to join the Changing Futures team as a Programme & Learning Co-Ordinator. You’ll be working with our Positive Activities partners, and co-producing the services with our brilliant Changing Futures participants. Find out more about the role and apply.
