UK RAIL’S BIGGEST FUNDRAISER

Due to the continuing uncertainty caused by the Coronavirus, the 2020 Ball has been postponed to Friday 26th November 2021.

In direct response to the Covid-19 outbreak RAIL AID, a new fundraising initiative was born to support Railway Children, bringing together the whole rail industry and raising over £540,000. Whilst we are taking steps to rethink our fundraising for 2021, we remain resolutely focused on continuing The Railway Ball’s charitable purpose in what ever way we can.

Where Your Money Goes

How You Help

The Railway Ball is an annual fundraiser, championed by the UK Rail industry, that enables Railway Children to change the lives of disadvantaged children and young people.

Every year thousands of young lives across the UK, India and East Africa become unbearable through poverty, abuse, violence and neglect.

Money raised from the Ball has provided care for over 270,000 children, before they become entrenched in street life.
