World Cup of Stations
Over 1,200 stations across Britain are supported by station adoption groups, made up entirely of volunteers, that help to make stations welcoming and safe, bring people together and add value to their communities. Often the work of these groups extends beyond basic upkeep, incorporating community gardening and food growing, local arts projects, and workshops and visits with children and young people.
Community Rail Network represents station adoption groups across Britain (alongside over 75 community rail partnerships) supporting them to be effective in benefiting their communities and railways, socially, environmentally, and economically.
We have partnered with Community Rail Network, by holding this year’s competition during Community Rail Week, to showcase community rail and the benefits the railways bring to residents, the environment and the local economy.
