Every year, we celebrate our amazing supporters for all they do to change children’s lives.
Date: 11th June 2024
The thankathon has become a much-loved, annual event in the Railway Children calendar: a chance to celebrate the charity’s amazing supporters and thank them for continuing to be a vital part of the Railway Children family.
Whether they were on the phones, writing postcards or sending emails, Railway Children staff got stuck in to show how much their supporters are valued.
Rob Capener, Railway Children Group CEO said:
Whether through donating or giving their time, energy and enthusiasm, thousands more children are now safely home with their families, back in school or empowered with the skills they need for a brighter future away from the streets, thanks to our amazing supporters.
So from everyone who works at Railway Children and from all the children whose lives you’ve changed… THANK YOU!
