Harmony Works Secures £4.7m Of Heritage Funding From National Lottery
The Harmony Works Trust has been awarded a substantial grant of £4,677,306 from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, marking a significant milestone in the planned restoration of Canada House in Sheffield city centre.
Having achieved official charitable status in August 2023, the Harmony Works Trust acquired the Grade II* listed Canada House from Panache Retail for £1.6 million last year. The Trust aims to transform the historic building into a vibrant regional music hub.
Upon completion of its refurbishment, Canada House will serve as the new home for several organisations, including us at Sheffield Music Hub, Sheffield Music Academy, Brass Bands England, Music in the Round, Choir with No Name, Orchestras for All, and Concerteenies. It will also foster close collaborations with The University of Sheffield, Sheffield Hallam University, and The Sheffield College.
