The Olympic Touch will pass through our local area on Day 68 of its nationwide tour, July 25th, two days before it reaches the Olympic Village.

 

It will be carried from Southgate, down Bourne Hill, right through the heart of Winchmore Hill, turning east at Ridge Avenue.

People from the local area are volunteering in lots of ways, serving stewards, training volunteers and even participating in the opening and closing ceremonies.

 

Lets hope the sun shines on July 25th, planning is already underway to make this an exciting day!

Experiences of an Olympics volunteer

Why have you volunteered for the Olympics?
 
At the beginning of every Volunteer, or Gamesmaker as we are now known, role training session, we are asked to share with each other, “what inspired you to volunteer?” So I thought I’d first explain why I volunteered; I guess I’ve always enjoyed volunteering, I was a school governor when my children were at Grange Park Primary, and am currently Vice Chair at Paddington Green Primary school. I also volunteer locally in Grange Park for the Conservation Area group and help with a small group of volunteer gardeners looking after our local Grange Park station. So when the opportunity to volunteer for the Olympics came along in 2010 I was one of the 260,000 who originally signed up.
