The Milestones
Fund Launch
We were absolutely delighted to launch the first Customer and Communities Improvement Fund at West Midlands Railway.
The Fund was designed to support projects in the region that create benefits for our communities, address social needs and enhance the railways. Importantly, these projects are not for commercial gain.
We are committed to helping grassroots groups, who really understand their local areas, to develop projects that could have real impact in their communities.
Project Handbook Published
We know that these community ideas don’t come fully formed into a complete project plan and we produced a Handbook and hosted Information and Training events to help our project participants develop the concepts to make a positive difference in local areas and ensure our stations reflect local character.
