Why not ask if your local authority is interested in establishing a Community Live Site, read our Community Live Sites Celebration Guide. Hover over title for link or go to... http://www.london2012.com/documents/general/community-live-sites-celebration-guide.pdf
The guide takes the form of a toolkit, and has been developed to answer the enquiries from bodies across the UK wishing to find ways to offer Games-focused activities. It provides guidance and advice on what you will need to address if you are planning a Community Live Site, and how to go about setting one up. As a Church/Churches you could offer to help set up and run a Community Live Site.
