England's fourth largest city, with a population of just over half a million, is well situated in the centre of Britain. It has easy rail and road links with London (approx 2hr 30mins) and a new airport.

Steelmaking still forms the hub of industrial activity, but the city has diversified its economic base into sports, leisure and tourism, making it an interesting place to visit.

The Crucible and Lyceum theatres are regional attractions and visitors continue to flock to the vast Meadowhall shopping mall and the assembly of Britain's finest sporting facilities. Sheffield also boasts two of Britain's most popular and successful universities, which between them attract nearly 45,000 students a year.(http://www.sheffweb.co.uk/ed/cityguide/overview/421227)
