Right from the very beginning of our bid in 2003, London 2012 has been about what can be achieved through the inspiration and power of sport, using it as a catalyst for positive change and inspiration.

Now, after years of detailed planning and preparations, the foundations of our visions are firmly in place. As well as the physical legacy of the London 2012 Games, which is clearly visible in London’s magnificent new Olympic Park and the transformation of east London, new initiatives and programmes are creating sustainable social, economic and sporting legacies at home in the UK and around the world.

In this section, we outline our aims and achievements in the areas of Youth, Sport, People, Transformation, and London and the UK.
