Regional Planning and Delivery
A Regional Coordinating Group has been established to harmonise work in the South East, chaired by Pam Alexander, Chief Executive of SEEDA. The group's Terms of Reference are based around three main themes:
Maximising the benefits (Legacy)
Involving all the region
Undertaking a two way information channel to & from the London 2012 organising committee.
Terms of Reference
Objective - The Group's objective is to ensure that regional co-ordination is provided to maximize the immediate benefits and legacy to the South East as a direct result of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games in London.
The South East Regional Co-ordinating Group for the 2012 Games is supported by six themed groups, which collectively encompass the benefits that the 2012 Games can bring to the South East.
They are:
- Business and Inward Investment (including sustainable development) led by the South East England Development Agency (SEEDA)
- Culture and Communities (benefits to residents including inclusion) led by Arts Council England South East
- Sport (facilities and building capacity) led by Sport England South East
- Visitor Economy (tourism) led by Tourism South East
- Transport and Infrastructure (transport and regeneration) led by South East England Regional Assembly
- Skills and Employment (workforce readiness and development) led by Learning Skills Council
Each sub group is made up of representatives from across the region to identify the key priorities for their respective themes including one major iconic project that will provide a regional legacy from the 2012 Games.
