Sheffield’s Covid memorial tribute plans Plans are in place to create a group of unique, long-lasting and creative memorials in Sheffield as a tribute to those who have died from Covid, those who have lost loved ones and those who have been affected by the pandemic. Sheffield, like those around the world, has been deeply affected by the impact of Covid-19, and the city wants to pay a meaningful tribute to those who have lost their lives and the heroes that have shone in these difficult times. Three areas of memorial activity are being developed by community representatives and organisations from across
the city to make the vision a reality. • A Memorial Archive will be created for Sheffielders to leave memories of loved ones lost during the pandemic, to celebrate our amazing community spirit, and leave other memories from this time. We will be actively gathering people’s stories and want people to come forward to share them. • A unique Memorial Trail taking residents around Sheffield and finishing at a central memorial will be curated too. The group is considering the approach to this as well and how the points on the trail can be used for reflection
and contemplation. Local memorial trails will be influenced by the stories and experiences gathered in the archive. • A centralised memorial is planned for the city centre. How people interact with designing the local memorials will influence what the central memorial will look like. The location is being considered carefully and the group wants Sheffield’s communities to be involved in what any site should look like. These proposals will be discussed at this week’s Cooperative Executive meeting where councillors will be asked to agree the proposals and to
provide a further steer and recommendations about the proposed activity. The key focus of these plans has been to ensure Sheffield has a broad and unique tribute that residents can be proud of, with input from many voices. Community groups and city organisations have been heavily involved to ensure this is meaningful for all of our communities. By the end of January the archive activity will start to take shape and over the spring and summer people will be asked about the memorial trail and how they can be involved in bringing that to fruition. Work will continue at pace
to complete the central memorial part of the project. Linked with the memorial activity is the work of the Compassionate Sheffield project which is about collectively sharing, listening and healing as a city. Compassionate Communities are networks of support comprising of family, friends, neighbours and community members who are faced with death, dying, loss and care-giving. The proposed memorial activity will contribute to establishing Sheffield’s status as a Compassionate City.
