Can we help you ?
Since 1858 we've been the Charity funded by railway people for railway people in distress. Today, the Railway Benefit Fund helps thousands of railway people - active and retired - to cope with problems of all kinds. We give financial assistance, practical help and wide-ranging advice, all in the strictest confidence.

If you're facing a crisis, remember... help is only a phone call away.

Can you help us ?
The RBF relies on the support of people like you to help colleagues and their families in need and distress. You can 'do your bit' through payroll giving, a one-off or regular donation, remembering us in your will, by becoming an RBF representative, a volunteer, a fundraiser or a friend...

How We Can Help
At Railway Benefit Fund we give grants to various people who have or are working on the railway. Last year we gave over £500,000 in grants. See how the grants have changed families lives....

The fund can provide cash grants to those facing financial difficulties due to sickness, family breakdown and other problems. It can offer ongoing support grants to help children at all stages in their education.
