Friends of Hebden Bridge Station

Voluntary group whose aim is to maintain and enhance the environs of Hebden Bridge Station.

The “Friends of Hebden Bridge Station” was formed in September 2007 to help keep the station environs tidy, maintain the gardens to the station entrance and approach, and provide a library in one waiting room for rail users.

We also seek to encourage greater use of public transport by lobbying for improved bus/train connections at the station and for disabled access to both platforms.

Additionally we also seek to raise awareness with both residents and visitors that the station is an important part of the town’s Victorian heritage, and to this end a permanent photographic exhibition on the history of the railway in the Upper Calder Valley is being mounted in stages in the station’s two Waiting Rooms.
