South Western Railway and British Transport Police teams have virtually ridden as much of the SWR network as possible this weekend.

The teams rode on spinning bikes from 8 am until 6 pm on the 14th and 15th September 2018.

The bikes were placed at the Brighton Yard entrance at Clapham Junction.

What did the officials say?

Fiona Brown, Duty Station Manager, Clapham Junction has organised and is participating at the event on behalf of South Western Railway, said:

“It’s quite a challenge for our team but one which is well worth it to support the life-changing work that this great charity does.”

Mary O’Hagan, Head of Corporate Engagement at Action for Children, said:

“We are delighted to have the support of SWR and British Transport Police employees who are taking on this challenge in aid of Action for Children. A huge thank you to all of them for their efforts! Together we will support young people on their journey to better mental health.”

Ross Martin, Police Community Support Officer, British Transport Police, said:

“This is going to be a sore but very rewarding challenge. It’s for a great charity that helps lots of young people – so please come and show your support at some point during the two days if you can.”
