Who else is involved in the London 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games

The Greater London Authority (GLA) is working to deliver the Mayor’s objectives for the London 2012 Games, and ensure that hosting the Games brings the best possible benefits for Londoners.

The London Development Agency (LDA) is the Mayor's agency responsible for driving London's sustainable economic growth and involved in the 2012 Games to ensure that London and Londoners maximise the long-term benefits that hosting the Games will bring.

The Nations & Regions Group will make sure the whole of the UK is involved in and benefits from the 2012 Games. The group is made up of 12 senior representatives from UK business and sport: nine from the English regions and one each from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Each member of the Nations and Region Group chairs a task force bringing together representatives of interested parties across their nation or region. They each have a vision and plan for making the most of the Games, from helping businesses gear up to win London 2012 Games-related contracts to encouraging young people to take up more sport and activity.

The National Lottery - £2.2bn of National Lottery funds are helping to create the facilities to host the Games, providing a long lasting legacy for the people of east London and the wider UK. The Lottery will share in the profits made from land and property sales in the future. As well as part funding the venues and infrastructure required to host the Games, the National Lottery is also playing a key role in funding work that will lead to increased participation in sport at a community and grassroots level and deliver improved community services and facilities.
