Sheffield Teaching Hospitals launched their new electronic patient record system in July.

The new system was meant to seamlessly pick up where the old one left off, but it didn't work out like that. "It was total chaos," one senior clinician told us.

What went wrong and are patients still at risk?

“Everyone is conflicted between what we want to do and what we should do — and whether anything will make any difference.”

Sheffield Wednesday is currently the poster child for badly-run football clubs.

But how is all the turmoil affecting the mental health of the Owls’ long-suffering supporters?

Alpha Tenant Management Co-op had an aim that was, in many ways, as revolutionary as the housing project it served: to give the community a stronger voice.

But in November, Alpha will fold, marking the end of one of the North’s last tenant management co-ops.

How did everything go so badly wrong?

Walkley has been thrust onto the frontline of the flag culture war.

The sleepy neighbourhood is normally better known for pottery exhibitions and horticultural shows, but on Sunday descended into bitterness and acrimony, with police being called out twice.

We find out who raised the flags and why.

“I think everyone deserves access to beauty.”

In the 1950s and 60s, Sheffield was at its industrial height. It was a wealthy and vibrant place and was looking to the future with confidence and optimism.

The beautiful, innovative buildings constructed during that time are a legacy of that optimism.
