Great to have Alex and Naomi from the ACoRP team visiting us today. Will be taking them out on the Tamar Valley Line this afternoon.

Has anyone done any research away from the railway asking people who either don't use the railway (or use it infrequently) their views on their local train service and what might make them use it or use it more?
A sister group to Women in Rail – Women in Community Rail.
Women in Community Rail hopes to:
-Share good practice across the rail industry, for example the gender balance within the community rail is much better balanced compared to other sectors.
-Actively promote equality & diversity generally
-Populate a web page containing a discussion forum function, create a LinkedIn page, a Facebook page and Twitter feed
-Informal mentoring
-Career talks – encouraging younger females into Community Rail roles as well as young people generally, particularly those who choose a different career path than an apprenticeship
-other ideas welcome
Please get in touch if you are interested in Women in Community Rail – we are particularly looking for people interested in being on the steering group and leading areas of interest and activities in the group.
