UK Railtours Passengers Raise £10k!

UK Railtours and their passengers spent four months raising funds through charity raffles after Phil Bicknell and John Farrow chose us as their charity beneficiary.

Natalie Thurlow was invited to Phil’s house in May to collect the cheque for an overwhelming £10,000!

Natalie said “I was singing at a gig, like normal, when my lovely friend Penny came up to me and said “Just so you know, I have put Lennox forward to my husband’s company, UK Railtours, as the next charity to receive £10,000!”. As I picked myself up from the floor, I asked a little more about this wonderful company!”

UK Railtours have run special excursion trains for day trips and land cruises throughout England, Wales and Scotland for over thirty years and have always run charity raffles. Their passengers, who have a history of being very generous, regularly raise £10,000 over a relatively short period of time!

This donation from UK Railtours will make a huge difference to our current appeal for funds to refurbish the family room at Queens Hospital in Romford.

Thank you very much to John Farrow & Phil Bicknell, everyone at UK Railtours and all the wonderful passengers that helped raise this fantastic amount of money.
