✨️New paint! ✨️The weekend engineering works are not ideal if you want to travel quickly, but they provide peaceful platforms to work on the flower bed edges.

Our volunteers are preparing and repainting all of the platform flower beds this weekend, and it makes our flowers look even better!

🌼Happy Spring Equinox🌼 Our bulbs have recently burst into colour bringing joy to the platforms. I'm sure the plants are as relieved as we all are to see more light after this damp, grey winter!

FoSS will be celebrating with some weekend weeding. Remember that gardening volunteers are always needed, get in touch if you'd like to help!

Despite recent grey, wet weather, there is hope! The bulbs have started to appear, and our volunteers have been making the most of some nicer meterological moments to start tidying the flower beds as light and warmth gradually returns towards spring.

If you're interested in joining in the fun and becoming a gardening volunteer in 2026, let us know!

On the day of the Class 455 farewell tours, here are some of our best picture memories of our beloved red trains.

They always helped our flowers 'pop' nicely in pictures. We'll miss you!

This week has been very grey and wet, but our flower beds are still bursting with colour to brighten your trip through our station!

Some of our volunteers were out weeding this morning before the rain returns. If you are keen to either learn about gardening, or share your plant knowledge with others, we're always looking for additional gardening volunteers. Just get in touch by messaging or email us (link in About).

It’s the Surbiton Festival today!!!

You can find these Rupert Bear prints that celebrate legendary Surbitonian illustrator Alfred Bestall at the Friends of Surbiton Station stall on St Andrew’s Road. Stall 66

It was designed by current Rupert Bear illustrator, Stuart Trotter and it features on the Rupert Bear install at Surbiton Station. If you haven’t seen it yet then today is a good day to visit it.

Guess who's back!? We are thrilled to be able to offer new stock of our popular Surbiton Station models at this year’s Surbiton Festival fundraising for plants for 2026.

The stall will also have an exclusive Rupert Bear print for sale, and a plant swap where you can swap a healthy plant, or donate to take one home.

We are also really keen to speak to anyone interested in volunteering with us as we have two committee roles about to become vacant, and always need gardening volunteers.

Do pop by our stall on St Andrew's Road from 10am on Saturday 27th September and say hello!

Get those cuttings on the go! 🌱

As part of FOSS' visit to the Surbiton Festival, we will have a plant swap.

Either bring a healthy, pest free, pre-loved plant and swap for another one, or make a donation and take a lovely plant home.

If you'd like to swap a plant for a plant from one that has got too big, get those cuttings done this weekend...we look forward to seeing you!
