Sheffield City Trust is a registered charity in the United Kingdom that owns and/or manages fifteen entertainment and sports venues in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England.

Charitable objectives

[edit]

The Trust was established in 1988 with three charitable objectives:

Venues

[edit]

The Trust operates a range of sports and entertainment venues:[1]

Sports and leisure centres

[edit]

The trust formerly managed Don Valley Stadium until its demolition.

Entertainment venues

[edit]

In January 2025, both venues will no longer be managed by Sheffield City Trust, with ASM Global taking over operations.[2][3]

Golf courses

[edit]

Finance

[edit]

The charity is funded via its three wholly owned subsidiaries, Sheffield International Venues Ltd, Sheffield City Hall Limited and Sheffield Festival Limited. In 2005–6 the Trust had an income of £56.7 million, expenditure of £55.8 million and held assets valued at £316 million.[citation needed] It is one of the 100 largest UK charitable organisations ranked by annual expenditure.[4] The current chair of the Trust is David Grey,[5] the previous chair was Howard Culley and before that (1997–2008) was Paul Blomfield.

Despite this, in recent times the trust has suffered financial problems and in 2022 received a £7 million lifeline from Sheffield City Council and agreed to hand back some of the major venues the trust manages.[6]
