They (Snowdrop) wanted a relaxing space. It incorporated the snowdrop design alongside, the colours represent their iconography\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More volunteers are being encouraged to get involved in the project and help support both the charity and the society themselves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary of People Against the Trafficking of Humans (PATH), Amelina said: \u201cI am on the committee of a society called PATH, which works to spread awareness around human trafficking, and works with charities such as Snowdrop\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking on the mural Amelina said: \u201cIt helps liven up the room and boost people\u2019s spirits\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adam said: \u201cWe\u2019re trying to get more members involved, any volunteering. Also it\u2019s just a good project for the society as people get to come along, have a paint, relax, it\u2019s mindfulness as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Snowdrop also help raise money through events such as organising teams for the Sheffield Marathon, The Sheffield 1000 and the Snowdrop Steps, a walking challenge to support survivors of modern slavery and exploitation, where the participants walk 56 miles in a month, which is just 2 miles a day, to fundraise \u00a350.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To donate or get involved with the Snowdrop Project visit these websites here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowdropproject.co.uk\/donate\">donate<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowdropproject.co.uk\/volunteer\">Volunteer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People can get involved with PATH at the University of Sheffield&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instagram: path_sheffield<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"67812\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/5-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-67812\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"67814\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-67814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/4-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/4-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"67811\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-67811\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/3-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/3-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"67813\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-67813\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new mural is in production at a Sheffield-based charity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":773,"featured_media":67810,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[43,21,1],"tags":[234,38,1685],"class_list":["post-67809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture","category-news","category-uncategorised","tag-art","tag-sheffield","tag-sheffielduniversity"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
