Olympics / Cultural Olympiad 2012

On 7 November 2011, the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games made a public announcement that Bath has been chosen as one of the ‘Communities on Route’ to host the Olympic Torch Relay. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for Bath to be a part of something extremely special and its moment to shine to a world-wide media audience.

Building on the objectives of the Department of Culture, Media and Sport Legacy Promise, we want to create a legacy for Bath & North East Somerset:

·  to improve the quality of life for all

·  to inspire a new generation of young people to take part in local volunteering, cultural and physical activity

·  to be a creative, inclusive and welcoming place to live in, visit and for business
