Looking for something?

At Northern, we celebrate the many wonderful and diverse communities we serve by supporting a wide range of people and projects across Northern England. The railway has an important role in making our region a better place to live and work. We always try hard to provide new opportunities and tackle issues affecting our communities. ​

We do this in many ways, but one example is our support of community rail and the activities these groups undertake. Often this is about promoting lines or stations and encouraging people to travel but increasingly groups are looking beyond the railway boundary supporting a wide range of community-based projects including community art schemes, sustainable produce, creating community hubs, working with those affected by mental or other health issues and tackling social isolation. In summary, recognising that the railway has a role to play in making our region a better place to live and work for everyone.
