Welcome to
Street, Rail and School Pastors in Scotland
School Pastors and Rail Pastors in Scotland.
School Pastors also operate in Scotland in a small but growing number of schools offering a range of activities and coming alongside students, following initial discussions with the school and with agreement from them. This can include chats with individual students, the creation and managing of ‘safe spaces’ in schools, help with transport issues and being involved in breakfast clubs, school assemblies and other school activities.
Rail Pastors operate in Scotland in partnership with Network Rail, Scotrail, British transport Police and the Samaritans. The are fully trained, using much of the training received as a Street Pastor for their Rail Pastor role, with added emphasis to look out for potential suicides.
