We call our London 2012 staff and volunteers ‘Games Makers’ because they help make the Games happen. Games Makers will be on hand at all venues to answer your questions, help you find your way around and direct you to your seat. You can spot them by their snazzy, brightly coloured uniforms. If there’s anything you need, please don’t hesitate to ask one of them!
