Inscription description
Willow Tree Memorial – Built march 2023 / This stainless steel sculpture representing a willow tree / has been installed as a permanent memorial. / A space to celebrate the small acts of kindness, support / positive change and remember those we have lost. / The tree memorialises the Covod pandemic, which was / a historic global event. No community was untouched / by the pandemic. / The experiences of Sheffield residents were captured, / stored in the City’s archives and incorporated into the / design of the memorial. / As we learn about each other’s lives we can lay the / foundations for a compassionate Sheffield. / Everyone has a story.
