Welcome

 

The Borough of Rochdale, along with Towns and cities across the country, raised the official 2012 flag to coincide with the closing of the Beijing Olympic Games and the handing over of the flame and flag to London. Joining in the event was triple paralympic athlete Simon Jackson MBE, parents of Heywood's Keri-Anne Payne and children from a Star Track Athletics Course as Link4Life launches its Athlete Development Programme to support local athletes from first skills to Olympic hopefuls.

Rochdale Borough Community Sports Mela 2008 - Friday 22 August 2008 to Monday 25 August 2008.
