Sheffield Hospitals Charity is set to make a significant move to Leah’s Yard, the historic former Little Mesters workshops on Cambridge Street. This relocation positions the charity in the Heart of the City’s dynamic new development, underscoring its ambitions to enhance visibility and connectivity within Sheffield.
The charity will occupy the office space on the top floor of the site, which is due to open this summer. They will be joining an eclectic mix of independent traders and makers, including renowned local artist Pete McKee, Gravel Pit and Bullion Chocolate.
Tom Wolfenden, Director of Leah’s Yard, expressed his excitement about the charity’s relocation, highlighting the challenges and ultimate success of finding the right tenant for the larger office space. “From our perspective, the larger office was always a space that might be tricky to let. We didn’t just want another office tenant, and its large size meant that finding the perfect fit was going to be a challenge.
“When Beth reached out about a potential relocation, we couldn’t have been happier. Bringing the amazing work that Sheffield Hospitals Charity does into our new thriving city centre was exactly the kind of result we hoped for when we first set about designing Leah’s.”
Beth Crackles, Chief Executive at Sheffield Hospitals Charity, echoed this sentiment, emphasising the charity’s desire for a more prominent location.
“Leah’s Yard couldn’t have a stronger Sheffield heritage, and now it’s filling up with the best of Sheffield’s independent retailers, while sitting alongside big corporates in the Heart of the City.
Sheffield Hospitals Charity is the official charity partner to the majority of the NHS in the city, and it is high time that we were based somewhere that gives us the right environment and platform to connect and grow. Leah’s Yard is exactly that.”
The move signifies Sheffield Hospitals Charity’s commitment to being more integrated within the city’s business community. By relocating to Leah’s Yard, the charity aims to foster stronger connections and support within the heart of Sheffield, aligning with the city’s heritage while embracing its future growth.
