Legacy programme for north west launched
'Be Inspired' – the North West Legacy Framework for the 2012 Games, has been launched by Sport England.
The Framework sets out how the North West will use the inspiration of the 2012 Games to increase levels of sports participation, improve recognition of volunteers, drive up standards in the NW's tourism industry, build on the region's vibrant and engaging cultural life, and increase the competitiveness of the region's businesses.
The launch of the Framework was welcomed by Olympics Minister Tessa Jowell.
She said: "When we bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games, I made it clear that the benefits should stretch far across the country and far into the future.
“I'm pleased to see the North West seizing this once-in-a-generation opportunity to boost local business, tourism, sport and culture. The plans put in place now will help to ensure a lasting legacy from 2012." Details: www.nwda.co.uk/publications
