This week is Rail Safety Week, which is an industry-wide and industry-led initiative focusing on rail safety for all.  Rail Safety Week aims to bring rail safety to the forefront of people’s minds across a dedicated week, keeping safety firmly in the spotlight and sharing ideas and best practice across industry colleagues.

To support this, we are sharing details of a free Railway Guardian app which we encourage you to download to your phones. This app is an all-in-one safety app from the British Transport Police (BTP). It allows you to report crimes or concerns on the rail network, share your journeys with trusted contacts, and get access to news, guides, or support.

The BTP wants everyone to feel safe and empowered when travelling, and by downloading the Railway Guardian app, help is always at hand if you need it.

Small actions can all play a part in making everyone’s journey a good one, such as:

• downloading the app
• reporting crimes and concerns
• learning about acceptable behaviour on the network and setting an example
• being an active bystander
