Power of the Flame

Leaving a lasting legacy beyond 2012.

Legacy Trust UK
This is not only about 2012. It’s about what comes after. What is being done by Wales to celebrate the Olympic and Paralympic Games through Culture in 2012 is also being done for the future. This will be our legacy. Power of the Flame brings cultural and heritage projects together as part of the Cultural Olympiad and will showcase their activities over the next 12 months across the whole of Wales.

Details of the five projects can be found in these sub-pages.
