► London 2012 Olympic Games - Newcastle Ambassador Roles

Newcastle Volunteer Centre and the council want you to be a Newcastle Ambassador for the London 2012 Games. St. James’ Park will be hosting both men’s and women’s football matches - group matches and the quarter finals.

The ambassador roles will be based throughout the city supporting visitors to these football matches. There may also be other London 2012 Games related activities happening in the city that volunteers can take part in.

Kris Hartridge is the Newcastle Ambassador Coordinator. He’ll be recruiting a large number of local people who are passionate about the region and the London 2012 Games. He says “This is a fantastic opportunity to get involved in celebrating our city while the eyes of the world are upon us!”

Ambassadors are volunteers who will be representing Newcastle during the period of the Olympic football at St. James’ Park.

They’ll play a key role in welcoming visitors to the city and will be on hand during the games to offer advice on how to get around, information about places to go and things to do, and promoting all that Newcastle has to offer.

If you are interested in this role, and aged 18 or over, please email Kris at Kristopher.hartridge@newcastle.gov.uk or phone him on 0191 232 6616.
