'All Change' Event | Digwyddiad 'Pob Newid'

The Heart of Wales Line Community Rail Partnership is looking for new members to help shape the focus of our work in communities. A Community Rail Partnership is usually composed of people interested in how the railways connect with the local community and includes representatives from county and town councils, train operating companies, Network Rail, local voluntary groups, rail user groups and tourism organisations. We want to recruit a diverse and energetic group from who can help formulate an annual action plan that will be delivered by the Community Rail Officer. 


We are looking for people representing organisations or community groups to join the new partnership, who can bring energy and enthusiasm and provide some local knowledge and experience. 


We will be holding 3 events at venues along the Heart of Wales Line, specifically, Shrewsbury, Llanelli and Llanwrtyd Wells. These events will allow us to share what we do in the partnership and how you can get involved. You will hear from current members and the Community Rail Officer. You will be able to ask questions, and there will be light refreshments available as well.


We have timed the event so you can travel by train from other stops along the Heart of Wales line. Full details can be found below. If you would like to attend an event please book in advance so we can plan food and seating.


If you can’t attend but you are interested please get in touch at owen.griffkin@heart-of-wales.co.uk

Catch up with your Community Rail Officer

18 Apr, 2024
So much for me writing monthly missives detailing what I have been up to in my role as Community Rail Officer. This is my first one since the end of January as it has been a very busy period over the last few months. This has been due to two projects that were finishing off, and also some end of financial year reporting to enable us gain accreditation from the Community Rail Network. I am pleased to announce we passed the accreditation process, with some very positive comments on our future plans from Transport for Wales, Community Rail Network, Network Rail and Avanti West Coast, who provide our funding. February started with 3 meetings in 3 days in Llanwrtyd Wells, Llanelli and Shrewsbury to promote the opportunity to join the Community Rail Partnership. These were very well attended and there was a lot of enthusiasm from the communities we met to engage with the railway positively on future projects. There were lots of ideas coming out at the meetings and we will have a strong partnership meeting for the first time at the end of April, with representation from all over the geographical area of the line, and from many different sectors.
