Annual Raffle
Every year the North Staffordshire Railway Company (1978) Ltd holds a raffle to support projects on the Churnet Valley Railway that aren't always seen as glamourous but are achievable with a modest sum. The most recent success of this is Froghall platform, where NSRC raffle funds were able to contribute over 27% of the funds required - in addition to sponsorship and donations raised by both the NSRC and Churnet Valley Railway collectively.
