UK - London 2012 Olympics - Game Maker volunteer directs spectators to venue

A volunteer directs spectators after the canoe slalom heats at the Lee Valley White Water Centre, north east London, on day 3 of the London 2012 Olympic Games. London 2012 volunteers are called 'Games Makers', as they are helping to make the Games happen. Up to 70,000 Games Makers take on a wide variety of roles across the venues: from welcoming visitors; to transporting athletes; to helping out behind the scenes in the Technology team to make sure the results get displayed as quickly and accurately as possible. Games Makers come from a diverse range of communities and backgrounds, from across the UK and abroad. The vast majority are giving up at least 10 days to volunteer during the Games.
