APL Donation to the Railway Children

APL Donation to the Railway Children

  Caroline Snowden|March 31, 2019

The APL was delighted to provide Railway Children with a cheque for £15,000 in the second of four donations to charity from the Annual Fundraising Dinner.

The Railway Children help to create a safety net for the most vulnerable young people in London, working with children identified on the transport network – an area no other agency is tackling.

The rail network and its stations are magnets to vulnerable children, offering them places to go and places to hide. Unfortunately, abusers know and exploit this, seeking out and befriending the vulnerable before grooming them for sexual or criminal activity.  In many cases the toxic trio of domestic abuse, poor mental health and chaotic substance misuse drives children out of the family home and in some tragic cases they may even resort to using the rail network as a means of ending their life.
