Serving our communities along the route
We’re proud to support the many communities up and down the East Coast route. We recently launched a breakfast club at a North Tyneside primary school with the Greggs Foundation, partly paid for through charitable fundraising by our staff. This will provide a free and nutritious breakfast for around a quarter of the school’s pupils, and we’ll continue to work closely with the Greggs Foundation to bring this to more schools.
In Durham, we’re working in partnership with the city’s campaign to win the Royal Horticultural Society’s Britain in Bloom award. Station staff worked with young people to prepare the station to impress the judges when they arrive in Durham this summer. We’ve also teamed up with Darlington Football Club to sponsor their kits, and fans will be able to buy the new shirts from August!
