Charity unleashed Sheffield voucher book
Is this the best £50 you could spend in Sheffield?
At the Tramlines festival I saw a stall selling a book of Charity unleashed vouchers but was a bit sceptical. I’ve since seen a bit of online and press coverage about the book, but it is only since speaking to friends that I’ve realised just what a good deal it is.
Full details are on the website, but the basic premise is that you buy a book of vouchers for £50 that are valid for various shops, restaurants, bars and places in and around Sheffield.
You’d be mistaken for thinking that these vouchers are the kind of free vouchers that regularly crop up online. The Sheffield Charity unleashed vouchers are redeemable for loads of free stuff, with a value totalling £1,052. Here are some of the deals that you are entitled to:
- three separate nights in hotels including Losehill house and the Cutlers
- a spa and hair package at Spa 1877
- food and drinks at the Leopold hotel, Cubana, Sakushi, Aroma, Lounge bar, 23, the Aston hotel, the Olive bar, Bar 360, Dosanj and the Milestone
- family tickets for the Steelers, Eagles, Magna and skiing
- a bungee jump, dive session and photography course
There is no catch – although there are some minor restrictions on when you can use some vouchers: for example, one of the hotels is weekends only and another is midweek only. Plus, some offers can’t be used in the same visit and some are proving so popular that you need to book ahead. Most of the vouchers expire on 31 August 2010.
But generally it looks like a great deal, which can pay for itself after you have used just one of the vouchers.
And the best thing is that Weston park charity gets £15 for every book sold, with the remainder going to the businesses involved and to cover costs. A donation of £21,780 has just been made to Weston park charity.
I wouldn’t usually use this blog for obvious promotion of one particular enterprise, and I have no connection with Charity unleashed, but this does seem to be a good deal so have splashed out.
Has anyone else bought a book and already redeemed any of their vouchers?

I want to say – thank you for this!
I have bought a book, its full of useful things….
Nice one. Thanks for the link. I just got back from visiting family in Dubai who had a very similar book. It seems they pretty much had a voucher for everywhere we wanted to go. I hope the Sheffield book is just as good.
