We're delighted to announce that we've been appointed by Special Olympics Great Britain to manage the PR for the the 2009 Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics Great Britain, supported by National Grid.
Between 12 and 25 July the Special Olympics Flame of Hope will travel from Much Wenlock, home of the Modern Olympic Games, through 45 towns and cities to Leicester to light up Special Olympics GB National Summer Games, which are set to be the biggest Games to date, attracting over 2,700 athletes representing 19 Special Olympics regions across the UK.
1,200 coaches, 1,500 volunteers and 6,000 families will descend on Leicestershire for a week of Olympic-style sports competitions in the largest multi-sports event in the UK this year.
