Today, Paul Jerrett successfully completed the Rail Trail challenge, raising vital funds for Railway Children, a charity that protects and supports vulnerable children living on the streets in the UK, India, and Tanzania.
Walking the Rail Trail for a Cause
The Rail Trail challenge is one of Railway Children’s flagship fundraising events. Participants take on an endurance walk along railway routes and scenic trails, raising awareness of the struggles faced by children who are alone, at risk, or in danger.
By completing this challenge, Paul is helping to fund life-changing support that ensures children receive safety, shelter, education, and hope for a better future. Every step Paul took today symbolises standing up for children who would otherwise be forgotten.
What Is the Rail Trail?
The Rail Trail is a walking challenge designed to be both achievable and impactful. Covering miles of trail linked to railway heritage, it combines fitness with purpose. Walkers encounter railway stations, checkpoints, and fellow fundraisers along the way — making it as much about community as it is about endurance.
Railway Children organises events like this to raise critical funds, and the Rail Trail has become a popular way for people to get active, challenge themselves, and contribute to a cause that saves young lives.
