OUR ETHOS.

We believe in adding value to communities. This can have benefits, such as encouraging use of the railway and breaking down barriers to sustainable travel, and helping to reduce vandalism.

 

As well as engaging people in volunteering, bringing people together and creating pride in our station and community, these groups play a critical role in making their stations welcoming, pleasant and attractive places.

 

Our work could extend beyond basic upkeep, incorporating community gardening and food growing, local arts projects, and workshops for all.

 

We want to work with councils and community groups to bring that sense of pride our station with is the gateway to our town, so please do get in touch.
