To help everyone stay active as we return to office life, VolkerRail has signed up to Rail Aid and has pledged to donate £5,000 to
Railway Children if employees can collectively walk, cycle, swim or run 5,000km by Sunday 21st November.

Donating to Rail Aid 2021 will mean Railway Children can keep on providing protection, support and opportunity to children across the world.
Since it was founded, Railway Children has helped more than a quarter of a million children, previously stricken by abuse, poverty and starvation, come to know a better life; living in hope and without fear. Each year the charity supports children from the UK, East Africa and India who, through neglect or poverty, find themselves in unbearable situations, homeless and on the street. The pandemic wiped out Railway Children's extensive events programme last year and has continued to affect them this year, including the cancellation of their main fundraiser, The Railway Ball, for the second year running. This leaves a gap of over £1 million in funding for Railway Children over two years, at a time when the children the charity supports need our services more than ever.
