For Day Three of our Christmas Giveaways, The Sheffield 1000 is proud to support a charity that connects generosity with genuine need across Sheffield.

We are delighted to donate £1,000 to The Besom, an organisation that provides practical and meaningful ways for people across the city to give to those in need. Whether through time, skills, money, or donated items, The Besom encourages everyone to find a way of giving that feels right for them — while supporting some of Sheffield’s most vulnerable residents.

The Besom acts as a vital bridge between organisations such as Shelter, Social Services, and domestic abuse charities, and individuals who have something to offer. By matching donations directly to people in need, the charity helps ensure support is practical, personal, and timely. Just as importantly, The Besom encourages and empowers the giver, showing that even small acts of generosity can make a real difference.

Our Christmas donation will help The Besom purchase essential white goods for people they support — providing practical help that can transform a house into a safe and functional home, particularly during the winter months.

At a time of year focused on kindness and giving, we’re proud to support a charity that reminds us all that everyone has something to give, and that generosity — in all its forms — can change lives.
