Suffolk County Council and the London 2012 Olympic and
Paralympic Games
The ‘greatest show on earth’ starts on the 27th July 2012 in
London. |
A global audience of 4 billion, 15,000 athletes from 205
nations, 46 sports and 70,000 volunteers will see the UK host the
largest event the world ever stages. From the wonder of the Opening
ceremony to the thrills of the sporting action it will capture the
excitement and galvanise the whole nation.
Yet it is much more than a festival of sport. It provides the
opportunity to be a force for good, leaving a genuine and
meaningful legacy for 
London and the whole of the UK.
Here in Suffolk we are working hard to maximise this once in a
generation opportunity for our communities to benefit socially,
economically and environmentally from the Games.
To find out more about Suffolk’s journey to the Games and what’s
happening in a host of different areas from culture, sport and
tourism to business, education and volunteering visit the
