South West and Wales Area Council

The South West and Wales Area Council is happy to welcome new and existing members for the coming calendar year. We have members from across the Southern Coast, South of Wales, and Southernly Counties of England, all from different rail companies and working in a variety of operational roles.

We aim to continue to run monthly events to help further the learning and professional development of our members across a variety of railway professions. Our webinars and networking events are hosted by a variety of rail industry experts, with attendees given the opportunity to meet like-minded professionals and make lasting connections within their field, as well as furthering their knowledge and capabilities within their respective roles.
