Age UK Sheffield
We are an independent Sheffield charity - providing free information & advice, dementia services and community wellbeing activities to support older people to live well in Sheffield.
Winter Fuel Payment
Help us save the Winter Fuel Payment for struggling pensioners. Cutting the Winter Fuel Payment, with very little notice and no compensatory measures to protect poor and vulnerable pensioners, is the wrong policy choice, and one that will potentially jeopardise the health, as well as the finances, of millions of older people this winter. This is the last thing both they and the NHS need.

Age UK Sheffield Celebration 20
We celebrated 20 incredible years with an event that truly showcased the amazing work of Age UK Sheffield over the past two decades.
A massive shout-out to our fantastic staff, volunteers, and partners—your dedication, creativity, and hard work made this night a huge success! Special thanks to the talented Balderstone Embroidery Group for their beautiful handmade bags, which paired perfectly with the bespoke bowls from the Northern Potters Association. And a big thank you to Sky Cares, Bradley Refrigeration Ltd, and Hawsons Chartered Accountants for your invaluable contributions—your support helped make this night truly memorable!
23 people gathered to explore the concept of Welcome Places and their role in fostering community connections.
The event marked a significant first step in addressing key challenges and opportunities within these spaces, sparking valuable discussions and forging new connections.
