Our stakeholders

Stakeholder Information

At Southern, we realise that the way we run our company, and the responsibilities we have, are of vital importance to a wide range of external stakeholders as well as passengers. 

Local communities, councils and councillors, MPs, user groups and transport authorities all have a stake in us and our future. We make it our business to listen to their views through passenger user groups, liaison meetings, 'Meet the Managers' opportunities at London termini, and newsletters.
