Better CitiesThe Better Cities Digital High Street Collaboration Scheme is highly innovative and

progressive. It provides a unique opportunity for all high street stakeholders (Local

Authorities, merchants and the public) to collaborate effectively in a new way

and then to benefit from the new value created.

G.A.P.S. Gather, Analyse, Play, StrengthenThe traditional way of planning our cities has created socio-spatial inequality.

Only a small percentage of spaces are successful while many others are

underused, resulting in some “gaps” both in the built environment and in the

social use of the city.

OverHear - Event map appOverHear is a solution to our collective fear of missing out, Sheffield has plenty of

entrepreneurs working to energise the city centre, the problem is that efforts are

not communicated to citizens. OverHear tackles this problem by simply helping

users search for events on a map by use of a time slider, that way user does not

need to know the name of the event or know those attending.

Situate - self-guided tour appsImagine having a personal tour guide whenever we visited a museum or gallery.

That would be the ideal way of getting the most out of a venue. Unfortunately,

that is normally not possible for obvious reasons!

Alcove – pioneering

independent livingAlcove wants to keep citizens better

supported in their own homes where

they want to be.

Give&TakeCareGive&TakeCare is reciprocal system where

people who give Care and Support earn

CareCredits called GATs, which they can

use subsequently to pay for Care when

they or their close relations need it.

GoodGym SheffieldGoodGym helps people get fit by

channelling their energy into social

good.

MindMateMindMate’s App has been designed and

optimised specifically for elderly people

NANA: Novel Assessment of Nutrition and AgeingNANA is an intuitive, easy to use solution created with and for older adults. It

has been validated against existing gold standard measures and provides a

new way of collecting reliable data from people living in their own homes.
