Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust is one of only four dedicated children’s hospital trusts in the UK and provides integrated healthcare for children and young people, including community and mental health care as well as acute and specialist services. We see children from 0-16 in most cases and in some cases up to 18. We provide a full range of services for residents of Sheffield and South Yorkshire as well as specialised services for patients from further afield. The Children's Hospital Charity exists to make an extraordinary hospital even better. We keep our specialist services special; providing the best equipment your money can buy, opening new facilities and funding vital research to change lives tomorrow. We make the clinical more comfortable; transforming the hospital space and adding the little touches that make a big difference to families. Together with all our supporters and staff, we do it for the kids.

The LUCY Project - a Sheffield Children's service which is all about listening, understanding and caring for you – is now available in nine hospitals across the country 💛

Following its success at Sheffield Children's to young people across South Yorkshire (Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley and Doncaster Hospitals), the LUCY Project has received funding from Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity through Bright Young Dreams, a campaign delivered on the charity’s behalf to improve mental health care and services.

The LUCY Project is now available for families also visiting Airedale Hospital, Great North Children’s Hospital (GNCH) and the Freeman Hospital, Jersey Hospital, and Alder Hey.

You can access support from The LUCY Project if you are under 18 years old and feel worried, anxious or have low mood about a physical health condition that you are seeing a specialist doctor about.

If eligible, you can access between six and eight sessions via phone or video call, each lasting 45 minutes. These sessions are a safe space to talk about difficulties, explore feelings, and find ways to feel better by setting personal goals and making a plan to reach them.

For information about how to self-refer, whether you might be eligible for this support, and more, please visit the Sheffield Children’s website.

This week, we marked World Cancer Day and as this year also marks 150 years of Sheffield Children’s and 50 years of Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity, we’re sharing the stories that show the true impact of care, compassion and community.

Jude Mellon-Jameson was bright, imaginative and full of joy. He loved stories, dinosaurs, ballet and collecting treasures and he cared deeply about giving back to the hospital that cared for him.

After being diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma just before his third birthday, Jude spent much of his young life receiving specialist treatment at Sheffield Children’s.

Throughout it all, Jude and his family found strength in fundraising - turning something devastating into a way to help other children and families.

Thanks to the incredible efforts of Jude, his parents, friends and the wider community, vital funds were raised to support the Haematology and Oncology ward, helping to transform the space into a more comfortable, welcoming environment for children who may spend weeks or months in hospital.

Jude’s legacy lives on not only in the ward that now supports so many children, but also through Jude and the Book Factory a beautiful initiative started by Jude and lovingly continued by his family, sharing the joy of stories with children who need it most.

Jude’s story is one of love, kindness and hope. It’s a reminder that even in the hardest moments, one child, one family and one community can make a lasting difference. You can read more about it on our website https://sheffieldchildrens.org/news/judes-story/

Thank you, Jude 💛🌟

🐉 Lunar New Year 2026 is almost here and we want to say thank you 🐉

As we get ready for a week of incredible Lunar New Year celebrations across Sheffield, we want to take a moment to say a huge thank you to everyone who works so hard behind the scenes to make these events possible.

Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity has been proud to be part of the Lunar New Year celebrations with our Dragon and Lanterns Display since 2023 and 2026 will be our fourth year celebrating alongside a community that has been sharing its culture, traditions and generosity with Sheffield for decades.

A special thank you goes to the organisers of the Sheffield Lunar Chinese New Year Spectacular at The Octagon on 18 February. This truly unforgettable evening will feature world-class acrobatics from China, a traditional dragon dance, and stunning performances including umbrella stomping, drum stomping, diabolo, magical costume change and more with all profits supporting Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity.

Alongside the spectacular, we’re grateful to be involved in so many brilliant events throughout the week - from the Dragon and Lanterns switchon and charity auction dinner, to Meadowhall parade and lantern making, the Peace Gardens festival and the gala performance. Every event helps bring communities together and supports children and families cared for at Sheffield Children’s.

If you’re looking for one event not to miss, we’d love you to join us at the Lunar New Year Spectacular and support the celebrations while giving back.

Ahead of tomorrow’s Britain’s Strongest Man event at Utilita Arena Sheffield, Sheffield Children's and Sheffield Children's Hospital Charity were delighted to welcome the world’s strongest brothers, the Stoltman Brothers, for a tour of the hospital.💙

Strong men Tom "The Albatross" Stoltman and Luke "The Highland Oak" Stoltman visited young patients today, putting down their weights to lift some spirits instead!

Tom is the three-time winner of the World’s Strongest Man, while his older brother Luke has won the Europe’s Strongest Man competition twice and is currently Britain's Strongest Man, hoping to retain his title tomorrow.

Thank you so much, Tom and Luke, for joining us! ✨
