Local knowledge across Sheffield

Sheffield is one of the largest cities in England, home to well over half a million people spread across distinctive communities from the terraced streets of Hillsborough and Crookes to the leafier suburbs of Ecclesall, Nether Edge and Totley. The city sits on seven hills at the eastern edge of the Peak District, so a care visit in Crosspool can feel a world away from one near the Winter Garden and Peace Gardens in the S1 city centre. We tailor support to the person and the place rather than offering a one size fits all service, whether a relative lives in a hillside terrace in Walkley or a bungalow out towards Totley.

We regularly support people returning home after a stay at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Broomhall or the Northern General Hospital in Fir Vale, both part of Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The first weeks back at home matter, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support and stay in close contact with families and community teams. That hospital to home support often makes the difference between a smooth recovery and an avoidable readmission.

Adult social care in the city is overseen by Sheffield City Council. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask the council for a free care needs assessment, followed by a financial assessment. Many families we work with self-fund their care, and we are always happy to explain how the different routes work. You can read more on our paying for care guide.
