THE station building at Shawford railway station is set to be transformed into a new community hub. The building, which includes five rooms, a kitchen, and a toilet, has been leased by South Western Railway to the Three Rivers Community Rail Partnership (CRP) for a nominal rent. SWR has a policy of making redundant spaces available for local people to use. While no decision has yet been made on what the space will be used for, options on the table include a community café, a cycle hub and a base for a local cub troop. The Shawford station building is the third redundant space in Hampshire made available by SWR for community use, following an internal review of all buildings across its network.

Althorne, Burnham, and North Fambridge will now have automated external defibrillators thanks to Greater Anglia. The defibrillators are small, safe and lightweight and deliver a shock to treat someone in cardiac arrest. They can also monitor the heart’s activity and give instructions to the users. Greater Anglia spokesman Alan Neville said: “The defibrillators mean that we are well prepared to provide assistance in the event of a first aid emergency. “We’re very grateful to the Community Rail Partnership and Community Rail Network for funding these defibrillators which could mean the difference between life and death for someone.” The Essex and South Suffolk Community Rail Partnership helps to keep Essex’s rural rail lines is funded by Greater Anglia, Essex County Council and local partners.

Updated A railway viaduct daubed with graffiti in Bristol is to be transformed by local artists.
Network Rail has teamed up with Severnside Community Rail Partnership to commission five local artists and artists groups to transform the graffiti underneath the Fox Park viaduct at Stapleton Road, Easton.
The two organisations, with the support of the Community Rail Network, are sponsoring the project including paying the artists, providing the paint and materials and safety equipment.
It is hoped that covering up the old graffiti and replacing it with new, vibrant artwork, will improve the look and feel of the area.
