Harrogate district train station spruced up thanks to team of hardworking volunteers

A group of hardworking volunteers have spent the day at Starbeck in Harrogate to give the train station a makeover.

The volunteers from Northern, Starbeck in Bloom, Friends of Starbeck Station and Halifax Station Partnership gave the underpass a new lick of paint and then spent time litter-picking and tidying up the platforms, underpass and surrounding areas.

There are now plans for three murals to be installed at the station.

The latest cases to be heard at Harrogate Magistrates Court between June 5 and June 12

“Our community partners are the heartbeat of the railway and we’re extremely proud to work closely with them to deliver such a wide-ranging positive impact for the North of England.”
