Moving towards a stronger, healthier future.
We believe that the future of wellbeing lies in preventative intervention, active lifestyles, and opportunities to thrive. Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park is an ecosystem that will enable all three, alongside world-first innovations and elite sporting achievements.
The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games called for us to ‘inspire a generation’. We are dedicated to answering that call, delivering a meaningful and tangible legacy for Sheffield, the UK, and the world.
And as the only Olympic legacy park ever established outside of a host city, we’re truly honoured to be doing it.
Inspired by London 2012.

“My absolute mission is to build a healthier, wealthier, and happier South Yorkshire. Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park is a genuinely world-class facility that will play a vital role in how we achieve that ambition.
“The Park doesn’t just improve health outcomes through its cutting edge research, it’s also a leader in health innovation through collaborations such as the National Centre for Child Health Technology, reducing health inequalities across South Yorkshire.
“It also inspires our young people by training athletes including those who achieved success at the Paris Olympics and Paralympics, and giving local communities the opportunity to train and compete alongside the best.”

Our history. Our future.
Ever since the London 2012 Olympics, the team in Sheffield has laid the foundations for a real and growing legacy of the games. The first step was to establish Legacy Park Ltd, whose purpose is to deliver the ambitious legacy themes in full.
Legacy Park Ltd now provides leadership for a powerful and growing coalition, including Sheffield City Council, Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust, Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield City Trust, NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board and Health Innovation Yorkshire & Humber. In its first development phase alone, the Park has seen £100m of investment.
In 2020 Scarborough Group International was appointed as development partner by Sheffield City Council to deliver the next phase of the Park, which will include a further 1 million sq ft of commercial space across an 80 acre zone capable of generating over 5,600 high value jobs.
An unrivaled investment opportunity
The Park is a unique opportunity for investors to help deliver a nationally significant legacy agenda – one that is centred around population health, research and innovation.
