Do you know someone inspirational to carry the Olympic Torch in 2012?

Jim is looking for an inspirational constituent who he can nominate to carry the Olympic Torch on its journey around the UK before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games next summer.

The Olympic Torch Relay will be a 70 day celebration that will travel hundreds of miles to bring the London 2012 Games to within a one hour journey of 95% of the population of the UK. The Torch will arrive in the UK on 18 May 2012 and be carried across the country by 8000 inspirational Torchbearers on a relay through towns and cities. The torch is due to come to Peterborough on 3 July and then Cambridge on 7 July 2012.

Jim is looking for constituents who have made a difference to their local community who he can nominate to carry the Torch – if you would like to suggest someone please email him on james.paice.mp@parliament.uk or use the contact form on the website. Please contact us by 28 June 2011.

Further details about the Olympic Torch Relay including how you can nominate someone yourself can be found on the London 2010 website.
