Virtual Filing Cabinet (VFC)

Our VFC has key information about the most important services and support covering a range of topics people are often looking for whether to share with someone else or to contact when developing a plan of activities and support for someone.

Each entry has a link you can follow to get more information about the service/event/activity. Hover your mouse over this to get a bit more information about what they do, any age or particular client groups they support, any specific parts of the city they cover etc. You'll then find icons for key information such as:

phone symbol  Telephone number
email symbol Email contact
form symbol  Referral form
leaflet symbol Leaflet, guide, poster
SMS text symbol SMS Text contact
Facebook symbol Facebook page

Click the phone icon to start a call to this number. Click the email to start an email to the service. Click the form icon to open the service referral form or their contact us form on their website. Click on the leaflet icon to open a flyer or brochure about the service you can print or email to someone.

At the bottom of each drawer we've included a link to the full list of all entries on the Sheffield Directory - so to see more options or find a specialist service you can use these to quickly switch to all the details we have on the directory.

We'd love to hear from you. If you have any questions, feedback or suggestions about how to improve this page, please contact Heather Baxendale (0114 273 4763) or Mike McEnery (0114 273 5925). Or email information@sheffield.gov.uk.
