Sport for all

One of the Mayor’s key election promises was to ensure that the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games delivered a genuine grass-roots sporting legacy of increased participation in sport and physical activity amongst Londoners. His sports legacy plan, 'A Sporting Future for London', set out the priorities for meeting this promise.

The Mayor also gave financial backing to the pledge and secured £15.5 million funding for grassroots sport in London. With match funding, this will see well over £30 million invested by 2012.

Here, you will find details of how we are spending this money and how you can take advantage of the new opportunities we are creating.
