Return of the REF 2021

Back in 2020, we unfortunately could not hold the Railway Environmental Forum due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with restrictions easing this year, we managed to get the REF back on track.

We had a fantastic turnout at the event, which was held in London at the BMA house in November. There were many topics covered at the Forum, including asbestos, environmental noise and sustainability.

We are already looking forward to the Railway Environmental Forum for 2022 and hope to see many of you there again next year.

On behalf of all of us at SOCOTEC UK, we would like to wish you a merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
