8 year old Niamh Power has just undergone her third operation in twelve months to remove a reoccurring brain tumour. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are no longer effective and the surgeon has now said that further surgery is no longer an option.

Craig Power, Niamh’s uncle, has been a Senior Sous Chef at The Milestone for the last year.

We need to raise funds for any treatment that may be possible and to help make Niamh and her family's life that little bit easier at this very traumatic time.

Sheffield’s largest independent four star hotel is celebrating further developing its links with the University of Sheffield by presenting one of its students from The MA in Early Childhood Education course with a prize at the January graduation ceremony for the third year running.
Jo-anne Lamb graduated at the Ceremony held at the Octagon Centre on January 12th, and was awarded the ‘Rutland Hotel Prize for Early Childhood Education at the Graduation Ceremony.’
Katey Dent, Sales Manager, commented: “The Rutland hotel has worked with various departments from the University of Sheffield for many years now for accommodation and events, including hosting the Early Childhood Education weekend study schools. It was a natural link for us to sponsor a prize to show support for each other while working together”.

Dr Jools Page, Programme Director for the MA in Early Childhood Education, said: “Our MA in Early Childhood Education continues to go from strength to strength and we are delighted to continue our collaboration with the Rutland Hotel. We recognize the work of all our students but Jo-anne’s research into Forest schools was academically outstanding and she proved a worthy winner of the Rutland Prize”.

Professor Jackie Marsh, Head of the School of Education, said: "I congratulate Jo-Anne on being awarded the Rutland Prize for Early Childhood Education 2011. The School of Education is delighted to collaborate with the Rutland Hotel on this prize and we thank them for their support and generosity, which is a wonderful accolade for our students' achievements."

The winner of the prize, Jo-anne Lamb from Norfolk, was thrilled and commented “I still can’t believe I won, but I am so happy! I have had some good times in Sheffield while studying and will be delighted to return back to the Rutland hotel for a stay in an executive room with dinner and breakfast which was part of the prize”.

Robert Hyman, Deputy General Manager, was delighted to attend the graduation ceremony and present the prize to Jo-anne. Robert helped run the Early Childhood weekends at the Rutland Hotel that Jo-anne attended during her two year part time study.

Jo-anne also won an engraved paperweight and £100 in cash.

A team from The Rutland Hotel on Glossop Road in Sheffield are celebrating after all completing the Sheffield Bupa 10k run last Sunday.

The team of 11 were running and raising money for the South Yorkshire Heart Appeal which is the hotels chosen charity for 2011/2012.

Katey Dent Hotel Sales Manager said “The SYHA is close to the hearts of the staff at the hotel as we have many families staying at the hotel whose relatives are having some form of surgery at the Sheffield Hospitals. We wanted to stand out from the crowd at the run so all donned branded T shirts and had heart shaped balloons and heart boppers on our heads, as well as carrying a hospital stretcher from start to finish with one of the team dressed as a heart surgeon!!”

Katey added “The day was amazing, two of the team has injuries on the day and one of us had to limp all the way to the finish – but we all did it and have raised well over £2000 for the appeal”.

Staff at the Rutland Hotel have taken on the challenge of running the10k Bupa Great Yorkshire Run on Sunday 9 October, to help raise funds for the South Yorkshire Heart Appeal.

The Appeal supports specialist cardiac services, and world class research at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. These services help save lives in the region, by reducing the odds of death from coronary heart disease which remains one of theUK’s biggest killers.

‘Team Rutland’ have been training for the last three months to get themselves fit for the big event. Most of the team of nine have not even run before and have had to work hard to ensure they can cover the miles on the day. Some have suffered minor injuries, such as pulled hamstrings, but are still determined to complete the race.




Katey Dent, Sales Manager at the Rutland Hotel said:” When I first started training, I couldn’t even run to the end of my street, so this is a real challenge for me, but I was determined to be part of the team. Relatives of patients often use the hotel so we see first hand how important access to quality health care is and this is our way of helping to support this.”

The Rutland Hotel has a long standing relationship with Sheffield Hospitals Charity and has previously raised funds for their Sheffield Cystic Fibrosis Appeal. This year the hotel has chosen to support the Heart Appeal and the 10k run is to launch the start of their ongoing support. The team will be clearly visible on the day as they will be running with heart shaped items to help raise awareness of the appeal.

Carol Denton, Fundraiser for the Appeal welcomed the support and commented: “Heart disease is higher than average in South Yorkshire so it is even more vital that we can help contribute to ensuring that the Cardiothoracic Centre remains one of the leading facilities for providing cutting edge treatment and undertaking world class research.”
