TRAMLINES ANNOUNCE OVER £200k RAISED FOR LOCAL CAUSES The Tramlines Trust has announced the 27 organisations that have received funding grants in 2023. They’re delighted to announce that the majority of this funding will go directly to Hillsborough-based organisations. The £57.6k raised by Tramlines in 2023 brings the total to a whopping £213,000 since 2018, with an incredible £3.7m boost to the local economy in 2023 (independent report by Sheffield City Council).
Tramlines Operations Director, Timm Cleasby, said: “To see the full range of people and projects supported in 2023 is fantastic. It’s wonderful to see all the organisations that are benefitting and how they’re using the funding. Our city is full of people and organisations doing great things in the creative industries and it’s a privilege to support their activities.” The Trust was born out of a desire to uplift and give back to the surrounding
communities and culture at the heart of Tramlines Festival. Some of the grant highlights from Hillsborough include a £5k donation to Hillsborough Together which will help fund the Christmas lights event in Hillsborough Town Centre. There’s support for the Hillsborough Hornet’s Disability FC who need a bigger pitch plus training for more volunteers and RivelinCo, which is close to the festival site in the famous Rivelin Valley. Linda
Bloomfield, the Founding Director said that money from Tramlines will be used to, “create and curate exciting shows, projects and events in unexpected places such as parks, schools, community centres and empty shops, and we lead creative workshops that bring together people of all ages and walks of life to learn new skills.” Mental health charity Adira, will use funding from Tramlines to buy Christmas gifts for
disadvantaged children across the city whilst Hillsborough-based, Bright Iris CIC, will support vulnerable employees in the workplace. Sheffield Cycling 4 All will help disabled people learn to cycle in Hillsborough Park.
Applications will be open for the next round of funding in Spring 2024. More information can be found at tramlines. org.uk/tramlines-inthe-community/thetramlines-trust/
