RBF - Winter Wellness

Feb 11, 2026
If you’re struggling to keep your home warm this winter, Railway Benefit Fund (RBF) may be able to help.

RBF is a charity that specifically supports current, former, and retired, railway workers and their families. 

Right now, they’re offering free Winter Wellness Essentials packs, including heated blankets and other heating aids, to help members of the UK railway community stay warm and protected through the harshest months of the year. 

To qualify, you must be:

  • a current, former or retired railway worker; or spouse/widow of a railway worker
  • in receipt of a means-tested benefit such as universal credit or pension credit
