BP

vinspired is working in partnership with BP, the Dame Kelly Holmes Legacy Trust and LOCOG (the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games) to train an impressive group of Young Leaders.

The London 2012 Young Leaders Programme gives a group of 100 young people, who wouldn't otherwise have had the opportunity, the chance to make positive change to their lives. It is a two year programme that includes workshops, mentoring and training events. BP employees volunteer as coaches alongside a host of big name athletes including Olympians and Paralympians.

The Young Leaders work together on developing local community projects and recruiting more of their peers to volunteer. For those who succeed, there is the opportunity to become a Games Maker at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
