Get Involved!

Our volunteer team have helped to deliver real improvements for passengers at stations along the local routes and have won many awards for their efforts.

We are also fortunate to have very strong support for our work from the community.

Here are just a few examples:

• Staffordshire’s very own JCB helped sponsor a welcome mural for Uttoxeter station;
• REACH Pupil Referral Service created colourful poster artwork for Longport station;
• Artwork by MaryHill High School and Clough Hall School decorates Kidsgrove station
• Amco are joint-funding a station mural for Longton station
• Heath Fields Primary in Hatton produced ‘Happy Birthday’ posters to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Tutbury & Hatton station
• Alsager Town Council provides funding to help the station volunteers maintain Alsager station gardens
  Forsbrook Parish Council and Heath House Farm are sponsors of the station planters at Blythe Bridge

Our work is also supported and funded by the Train Operating Companies, East Midlands Railway, London Northwestern Railway, Avanti West Coast and Cross Country Trains and partners including The Community Rail Network and The Bee Friendly Trust.

If you would like to get involved in volunteering or by sponsoring one of our projects, plants or gardening equipment to help the station volunteers or in becoming a funding partner please get in touch with the partnership.
