London 2012 Volunteering programme is launched
The London 2012 Volunteer Programme was launched on 27 July 2010, seeking to recruit up to 70,000 volunteers or ‘London 2012 Games Makers’.
Pre-identified people wanting to become a London 2012 Games Maker, can now apply for specialist positions such as doctors, anti-doping personnel and scoreboard operators.
Those interested in the more numerous general volunteering positions can go to www.london2012.com/volunteering and find everything they need to help them decide if they have what it takes to be a London 2012 Games Maker.
Applications for the more numerous generalist roles which include ticket checking, uniform distributors and staffing helpdesks and information points, will open on 15 September 2010.
The programme’s Presenting Partner is McDonald’s.
