Join us in south Wales, Neath for an exclusive visit to the Global Centre of Rail Excellence (GCRE). It’s your chance to gain a unique insight into this major rail innovation project during its construction phase.

You’ll experience:

  • a guided tour of the construction site, with travel across the location in 4x4 vehicles
  • first-hand exposure to large-scale infrastructure works
  • insights into how the project supports the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015
  • an overview of the long-term social, environmental and economic benefits GCRE aims to deliver.

This is a rare opportunity to explore a nationally significant project and see how South Wales industrial heritage is shaping a sustainable future.
