Looking Forward - Olympic & Paralympic Ambition The Sports, Culture and Parks Service has been developing a delivery plan to capture Nottingham’s offer for the games and it is our ambition is to ensure that Nottingham City uses the opportunity of the UK hosting the Olympic and Paralympics Games to; ■ Raise aspiration and ambition ■ Inspire our citizens to become the best that they can be ■ Ensure the spotlight and world attention that the 2012 Games brings does not miss Nottingham. ■ Helps us promote the future growth and prosperity of our City.

Looking forward – We need to define 2012 Offer– including:- Torch Relay, Children’s Festival. WEYA Festival, Ignite Programme, Sport and Leisure Programme, Parklife, Volunteer Event The Legacy - (Decade of Sport/Decade of Health) to focus on club development, increased participation in physical activity, hosting international events and a network of trained volunteers active across the City

What we are working towards… A comprehensive delivery plan for the Nottingham offer – (Early 2011) To include:- -Actively participating in a torch relay event within the City -Opportunities for all citizens to engage in Nottingham’s offer -A menu of activities for citizens to participate in physical activity, sport and arts and culture -Details of the legacy for Nottingham post 2012

2012 Olympics – We need to be realistic Growth funding for new developments on baseline service budgets for an Olympics programme will be scarce. Re-branding existing mainstreamed initiatives will be required. Sponsorship where possible and allowable will need to be sought. Partnership working is going to be required to build a strong Nottinghamshire offer.

Where Support might be useful Is there a need to appoint an Olympic Champion for the City of Nottingham to increase the visibility and awareness of opportunities available for the 2012 games. How best to finalise on the resources required to deliver a programme which makes an impact during the Olympic and Paralympic games How best to engage with both sporting and cultural partners to maximise the Nottingham Offer What Legacy do we wish to see from 2012 for the City.
