London Youth Games torch relay

On Friday 13 June, the Balfour Beatty London Youth Games Relay Torch makes its way to the Redbridge Cycling Centre as part of the London wide launch of the games.


The torch was lit on 9 June by the Mayor of London and has been visiting each of the 32 London boroughs and the City of London this week.



The London Youth Games is a showcase of talent and Redbridge has many top performing young athletes to be proud of! By raising the profile of the games, it is hoped that more young people will get involved in future.

The Redbridge Cycling Centre is a brand new facility, which will be officially opened later this year and is the perfect venue to host the relay. See attached link http://www.redbridge.gov.uk/cms/leisure__culture/sports__leisure_centres/redbridge_cycling_centre.aspx It is located in the north of Redbridge. And can be found opposite the Hainault Industiral Estate and is on Forest Road in Fairlop. To contact the centre manager, you can do so on 07988 680 011.



The Mayor of Redbridge, local dignitaries and school children will gather at the centre at 3pm to greet the torch bearer and the relay will depart the centre by 3.45pm for the next leg of its journey.
