UK - London 2012 Olympics - Games Makers and Olympic rings

Games Maker volunteers shade themselves from a hot sun beneath giant Olympic rings used as a background for spectators' photos during the London 2012 Olympic Park. 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.
