A message from the Meldreth, Shepreth and Foxton Rail User Group

Changes to Rail Services from 6th September
Dear Melbourn,
GTR have notified us of changes to our rail services from 6th September. They are continuing to recover from the disruption of the last 18 months, but staff levels are being affected by the pandemic.
In order to prioritise rush hour and school trains, our train service will go down to one train an hour in the middle of the day for the time being.
Customers are asked to plan their journeys at www.nationalrail.co.uk, where the changes will be shown from 28th August. The timetable will be reviewed in December 2021.
Cambridge to King’s Cross
Two stopping trains per hour will run between Cambridge and King’s Cross during school and busy times. During the middle of the day, one of these trains per hour will not run between Cambridge and Royston, meaning an hourly service at Foxton, Shepreth and Meldreth outside of busy times.
For more information, here is the full text of the message:
Best wishes,
Susan & Sarah

Covid Vaccine Passport scam

Please be aware of an email going around that purports to be from the NHS and informs recipients that they can apply for their “Digital Coronavirus Passports”Clicking on the link within the email, takes you to a convincing but fake NHS website that asks for personal and payment details. (for an admin fee)

Just to reiterate, your vaccination status is obtained FREE through the NHS App, website or by calling the NHS on 119.
