London Ambassadors Success for Young Volunteers
200 Rep London students have volunteered as Team London Ambassadors - providing key
information and a friendly face for visitors during the Olympics and Paralympics. The information
'pod' in Spitalfields is the only one exclusively run by young people and was funded by the Olympic
Lottery Distributor. It was launched by the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, who personally
congratulated the students for their role in ensuring the success of the Games. READ MORE
BBC 21CC Filming Project
20 students from four schools across east London became filmmakers this summer, zooming in
on the legacy of the Games at ELBA's One Movement festival and following the journey of two of
our young London Ambassadors. The young people attended a series of sessions at the BBC's
21CC, where they created storyboards, learned how to use professional cameras and how to
address an audience from none other than journalist and TV presenter, Ellie Crisell. To watch the
