Our partners & supporters
Thanks to our fantastic partners and supporters we provide pivotal support to a flourishing community rail movement, contributing to inclusive, empowered, sustainable and healthy communities.
Our partners and supporters give more than their money, they offer their time and expertise to aid our members’ work to grow the reach of community rail across Britain. Read about some of the great work we’re doing with our existing corporate partners and find out how you can get involved.
Core funders and corporate partners
Our core funders and corporate partners enable us to provide direct support to grassroots community rail groups. From advising our members, to organising the annual Community Rail Awards, to securing (and administering) vital grant funds, to running events and publishing resources. We couldn’t do it without them!

Community Rail Awards sponsors and donors
We’re delighted to be working with our headline partner East Midlands Railway, to bring the Community Rail Awards gala event to the fabulous Derby Arena on Thursday 19 March 2026.
We’d like to say a special thank you to all our Awards sponsors and donors – without you none of this would be possible!
