The parks regularly host a great range of special events including circuses, fairs and open- air concerts throughout the summer.

  • Opus Distribution
    OPUS DISTRIBUTION OPUS OPUS DISTRIBUTION OPUS DISTRIBUTION OPUS OPUS DISTRIBUTION WHY CHOOSE OPUS DISTRIBUTION? Opus Distribution is a social enterprise which provides unique distribution opportunities exclusively to independent traders, community groups, arts organisations, charities and local government. We distribute print to over 4,000 locations in Sheffield, North Derbyshire, Manchester, Leeds, Nottingham, Barnsley, Doncaster, Chesterfield and Rotherham. Opus Distribution firmly believes in the values of transparency, dedication and customer service. We do our best to give you the maximum amount of information about your print, from the point that we place it in the public sphere to the point that it is no longer in date and in need of recycling. We consider it an essential part of our service that for work completed in Sheffield and North Derbyshire we are able to recycle a client’s print once it goes out of date. The added benefit of this is that we can estimate how much print has been picked up by the public and in which areas it was best received. This allows you a great deal of feedback on which to base your next print distribution campaign. After completing each distribution run, we send our clients a detailed report of which locations have received their print and in what quantities. This helps you to track your print as time progresses. WHO DO WE SERVE? We work exclusively with local traders, community groups, local government, arts organisations, independent promoters and charities, creating and sustaining strong networks and shared ideologies of independent trading. Opus Distribution, like many other organisations in Britain today, is a firm believer in keeping our local economy strong enough to fulfil the needs of the community.
