Hull Trains and the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust have launched a new partnership intended to reach directly to schools and colleges to help educate the next generation on the planet’s challenges and discuss some of the key actions to protect it and wildlife species.
Hull Trains Service Delivery Director Lou Mendham said: “This charity was chosen by our team as their charity of choice to support this year. We all have one home that we share, so it’s vitally important that we work together to protect our planet and all of the various species on it.
“We hope that this new partnership can help to raise awareness of current issues and also open dialogue with the next generation to engage them early in the changes we all need to make.”
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust Director Fundraising and Engagement Amanda Spivack added: “The partnership with Hull Trains is a really exciting one for us at Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.
“They have fantastic business connections, as well as great consumer exposure in the region. One of the key aims of the partnership is to highlight the benefits of train travel over other forms of travel, particularly with reference to the climate crisis we face and protecting some of Yorkshire’s most valuable wildlife habitats so nature can thrive.”
