Today, our very own Natalie and Kathryn from the Learn Live team are in Northern Ireland attending Rail Link Belfast 2026—Ireland’s number one rail expo!

Held at the impressive ICC Belfast, the event brings together operators, contractors, consultants, and suppliers from across the entire rail ecosystem. With a packed schedule of industry-led talks focusing on safety, innovation, and sustainability, it is the perfect setting to discuss the future of the rail industry and the vital role that education plays in it.

Why We’re at Rail Link Belfast

At Rail Safe Friendly, our mission is simple: to save lives by delivering essential rail safety education to schools across the UK and beyond. Achieving this requires strong collaboration with the wider rail sector.

Natalie and Kathryn are spending the day at the expo to connect with industry leaders, share the incredible impact our interactive safety broadcasts are having on young people, and explore new partnerships.

Events like Rail Link Belfast are crucial for us. They provide a fantastic opportunity to speak face-to-face with companies who are just as passionate about safety and community impact as we are. By partnering with Rail Safe Friendly, rail businesses can directly sponsor schools in their local areas or project footprints, ensuring that life-saving rail safety education reaches the children who need it most.

Come and Say Hello!

If you are attending the free expo this afternoon between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm, keep an eye out for Natalie and Kathryn! They would love to chat with you about:

• How the Rail Safe Friendly programme works.
• The benefits of becoming an industry partner.
• How your company can fulfill its social value and CSR goals by sponsoring local schools.

Not in Belfast Today?

You don’t have to be at the expo to make a difference. If you are part of the rail industry and want to help us keep young people safe on and around the tracks, we want to hear from you.

Head over to our [Industry Partners page] to find out how your organization can get involved with Rail Safe Friendly, or contact our team directly to set up a chat. Together, we can ensure that every child understands the dangers of the railway and knows how to stay safe.
