The UK’s largest train company is surprising commuters in Brighton with free Christmas Party ‘Survival’ Kits, as this week is officially revealed to be the most popular for the annual office Christmas Party.
Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR), says its kits are designed to perk travellers up for their journey home, as well as helping weary heads the next day.
Each kit includes the top five items deemed to be hangover saviours by Brits:
- Food
- Coffee
- Electrolytes
- A detox shot
- Breath mints
As well as offering a helping hand this festive season, the giveaway aims to raise awareness about the increase in accidents that take place at train stations at this time of year.
GTR data shows there were more than 150 incidents relating to slips and falls at stations last winter and there was also a rise in reports citing intoxication as a contributing factor.
GTR is handing out kits to commuters passing through Brighton this morning.
Samantha Facey, ‘Elf, Safety and Security Director’ at Govia Thameslink Railway, said:
"With this week being the most popular time for office Christmas parties, we’re likely to see extra travellers, which is why we’re offering a helping hand with our ‘Survival’ Kits.
“We of course want our customers to go out and have fun, but with a year-on-year increase in slips, trips and falls on our network during winter, coupled with higher levels of intoxication, we want people to be careful when travelling and not to do anything that puts themselves, or anyone else, in danger.”
Commuters travelling through Brighton train station can get their hands on a Christmas Party ‘Survival’ Kit for today only.
They will be handed out until 10am.
