Friends of 4930 Hagley Hall
The Friends of 4930 Hagley Hall is an independent group based on the Severn Valley Railway. It was formed in early 1999 by a number of younger members, with the objective of raising funds to contribute towards the restoration of Ex-GWR 4930 Hagley Hall[1]. The locomotive is owned by Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC.
In 2010 the Friends published on their website a letter from the SVRSevern Valley Railway's General Manager stating that they would have an equity stake in the locomotive in return for their fundraising.
From 2018 the Friends are fully integrated into the SVR Charitable Trust so they can maximise income through Gift Aid. [2]
From time to time the Friends operate a sales stand at galas and special events on the SVRSevern Valley Railway.
