If you live in the South East, there are many ways you can join in with the 2012 Games.

In 2012, the South East will be part of the sporting action, hosting the Rowing and Canoe/Kayak events at Eton Dorney. The region will also be a vital gateway for visitors and athletes to the London 2012 Games.

But being part of the 2012 Games is something that's already started: by volunteering, through events in the Cultural Olympiad, as a supplier to the Games and more.
