Volunteering for the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games
Join Newham's
Volunteers
Become a volunteer and help Newham prepare
for the 2012 Olympic Games.
During the bidding process, Newham established a
volunteering program which has helped to develop a pool of over 500
volunteers. And London is calling on the need for over 70,000 to
deliver the Games so lots more help will be needed.
There are three steps to becoming a Newham Volunteer. First you
will be asked to complete a registration form and return it to us.
We will then contact you with details of forthcoming induction
sessions, with dates you can choose from.
You will attend a two hour volunteer induction session for which
you will recieve a certificate.
Finally you will be sent an exciting diary of event and activities
in which you will be able to participate.
By volunteering with Newham's Volunteers you will gain:
- free accredited training with ongoing support and skills
development opportunities
- improved prospects for further education or employment
- free Newham's Volunteers uniform and all out-of-pocket
expenses
- involvement in exciting and prestigious events
- teamwork opportunities and a chance to make new
friends
