Printed by Us
Printed by Us is a Social enterprise that employs people who have experienced homelessness to overcome adversities in a supported environment
Project Overview
The Archer Project has a proven history of transforming the lives of the vulnerable and homeless from Sheffield and the wider region. We are integral to the community of ostracised people who most need help and understanding. We give vulnerable people the tools to rebuild their lives. The aid and support given follow individuals in their journey through to regaining the confidence and ability to volunteer or enter employment. As a charity, we constantly adapt and learn to ensure that the best possible support is delivered to those who come to us for help.
Printed By Us is one of our most valued parts of our Charity. It is a social enterprise that employs people who have experienced homelessness and overcome similar adversities in a supported environment. We believe there is hope and a way forward for every person. We give opportunities for vulnerable people to learn new skills, build confidence and thrive within their work and home environment.
We run workshops to teach vulnerable people the craft of hand screen printing. We employ individuals with lived experience to print small batches of unique Art prints designed by some the finest local creatives. We then sell these exclusive art prints, mugs, t-shirts and sweaters, primarily via our retail unit & online shop. We also offer a custom printing service to organisations who need high quality printing on excellent quality, ethically-made garments. We are crowdfunding to raise money for our equipment costs. The money raised will go towards allowing us to continue offering supported employment opportunities to vulnerable people while teaching new skills and crafts.

Alex Wish Duchenne Virtual Ward Project
Alex's Wish is a charity dedicated to conquering Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. A progressive, life-limiting muscle-wasting disease that affects 1 in every 3,500 boys born. We are a family-run charity, set-up by Alex's parents 13 years ago after discovering there is not enough funding going into medical research to find treatments and a cure for those living with Duchenne in the UK.
Rainbows Hospice Gardens
Rainbows cares for hundreds of families every year who have a baby, child or young person with a serious or terminal illness that means that their lives will be shorter than most. We support every baby, child and young person to fulfil their potential, and help families make the most of every precious moment, while capturing memories and keepsakes to treasure. We’re here for the whole family, offering comfort and compassion during tough times, providing the highest level of professional care until the end, and support after. Simply put, we’re here to brighten short lives, and support families, wherever they are.
Forever Stars
Forever Stars is a registered charity run by volunteers, dedicated to supporting families experiencing baby loss, including early miscarriage, stillbirth, or neonatal loss. We offer compassionate assistance from the time families are in the hospital and throughout their lifelong journey of grief. Our services are available to all family members, regardless of when they seek support, whether immediately after their loss or many years later.
