Virgin Trains celebrates 170th birthday of Alsager Station – the Jinty Project
North Staffordshire CRP

We held special activities throughout 2018 to enhance the environment of Alsager Station and build positive relationships with the local community.  Our activities as part of the ‘Jinty Project’ have resulted in a new willow frame, a wild pollinator-friendly flower garden and more edible plants. 

 

Adopters put on a week-long station history display in Alsager Library.  Pupils from Excalibur Primary School and Alsager School also created permanent artwork depicting the history of the station. Along with the Chair of Alsager Town Council, the pupils attended the unveiling of the artwork at the station on 9th October.

 

The adopters were rewarded for their hard work with an ACoRP Silver “It’s Your Station” award.
