Harmony Works Trust is celebrating another major funding milestone after securing a £1 million grant from the Garfield Weston Foundation – moving the long-term ambition to redevelop Canada House into a dynamic new music hub within touching distance.
The Garfield Weston Foundation is a UK-based charitable grant-making organisation that distributes more than £80 million annually across sectors including the arts, education, youth, health, community, environment and welfare.
This latest pledge adds to a growing list of funders, including £4.7 million from The National Lottery Heritage Fund and £3.5 million from Arts Council England.
Additional support has also been secured from Sheffield City Council, South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority, the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund, and several other trusts and foundations. As a result, Harmony Works has now raised the vast majority of the funding required to deliver the project.
However, a final funding gap of over £1 million is still being sought.
