Handmade yellow mimosa flowers and wristbands were handed out around Sheffield City Centre to help raise awareness of the #NoWomanLeftBehind campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The campaign aims to tackle women\u2019s health inequalities across Sheffield and tries to donate at least \u00a32.5 million every year to support local projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They managed to donate just over \u00a33.2 million, between 2024 and 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Women and girls face deep and persistent health inequalities, and there\u2019s a wealth of data which demonstrates the need for improved support for women in Sheffield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beth Crackles, Chief Executive of Sheffield Hospitals Charity, said: \u201cSomewhere along the line our funding is likely to have helped you or someone that you love because we provide support to the NHS at every stage of life\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen the NHS needs help, we are here to provide it – but we can only do this through generous donations, fundraising and events, corporate partnerships and a real coming together of our community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sheffield Hospitals Charity are scoping three areas to help combat these inequalities which are maternal health, violence against women and early cancer diagnosis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
National statistics show Black women are almost four times more likely to die during the perinatal period than white women. In England and Wales, 1 in every 12 women will be a victim of violence. Across the UK, a third of women are missing their cervical screening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Farah Akhtar, Health Inequalities Lead at Foundry Primary Care Network said: \u201cThe funding provided by Sheffield Hospitals Charity has been instrumental in supporting some of our most vulnerable patients who face significant financial and transport barriers to accessing secondary care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
