• Despite threats of heavy rain, yet another fabulous Family Fun Day for Sheffield families was had at the Niagara Centre at the end of August. The Niagara Centre offered plenty of space for families to relax and for children to enjoy a wide range of accessible activities. From bungee trampolines to adapted bikes and even a petting zoo, there was something for everyone. A special thank you goes to Sheffield Wednesday F.C and The Sheffield Eagles Foundation for their support with this.

  While the day was all about fun for the kids, we also welcomed several organisations who shared useful information with parents and carers. A huge thank you from all of us here to:

  • Sheffield Parent Hubs
  • Sheffield Family Hubs
  • Healthwatch Sheffield
  • Sheffield Mencap & Gateway
  • Community Youth Teams
  • Sheffield Mind Autism and ADHD Hub
  • Neurodiversity (Family Action)
  • YCAT (Young Carers Assessment Team)
  • Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust.

  We are very grateful to the Facey Family Foundation, whose generous support has now funded this event for the fifth year running, and to our fantastic volunteers from HSBC and AbbVie as well as our very own. Events like this simply wouldn’t be possible without the time, energy and enthusiasm of our amazing team, trustees and volunteers. Thank you all for creating such a special day for our families. We are so grateful for your support and hope to welcome you all back next year!
