 Sheffield
In the early 1990s the poor condition of the inner city parks and open spaces became a cause of concern for the City Council and residents alike.
In this period a new Sheffield Parks Regeneration Strategy was adopted and several urban regeneration projects associated with derelict and informal open spaces were undertaken to improve the local economy and social welfare of city residents.
In particular, the direct involvement of the Sheffield City Wildlife Trust - rather than an amenity group for example, or private sector partner - as the co-sponsor of the Parks Strategy is a local response to these meta discourses and is one that reflects the distinctive commitment of the SWT to community-based, environmental regeneration.

At the annual Sheffield University Recycling Forum organised by People and Planet, David Bird, Head of Waste at Sheffield City Council, told an audience of students that 'Sheffield City Council does not believe that recycling is the answer'.
Sheffield City Council has no plans to expand the successful blue bin scheme and collect other recyclable materials at kerbside, it was revealed last night.
This policy is driven by the cost implications of a more comprehensive kerbside recycling service and the fact that Sheffield has a 30 year contract with private waste contractor Onyx centred on incineration and the building of a 225,000 tonne capacity ‘Energy from Waste’ plant in the city centre.
