All money raised in Sheffield will be used to improve care and treatment for local communities, which could help your employees, customers and their families and friends. Walk for Wards is a fantastic day out for all the family and gives you the chance to join like-minded people in our community who really care about their local NHS hospitals.   For more information about Walk for Wards please visit www.sheffieldhospitalscharity.org.uk/walkforwards Alternatively, you may wish to speak to the Fundraising Team at charity@shct.nhs.uk or on 0114 271 1351.
