RailStaff is sad to announce the passing of Chris Jennings, head of Trevelyan Training, who died on 17 February 2025.
Supported by his wife Sheila, who passed away a few years ago, Chris’s dedication to the industry was beyond expectations.
Between them, they provided a service which bolstered the safety of track workers, ensuring they understood the rules and their responsibilities. Chris and Sheila were deeply passionate about their work and always gave their best.
Their efforts earned them the Network Rail Training Provider Of the Year award in 2004.
‘They were like a mother and father to me,’ said Karl Howe, trainer/assessor, at Howe to Train Ltd.
“They took me under their wing and helped me progress from being a P-Way operative to winning the Trainer / Assessor of the Year award at the Railway People HR, Recruitment & Skills Awards 2014.
“Chris had so much knowledge and was so keen to ensure that others gained from this. He will be sadly missed and will leave a void in the industry.”
