Olympic ticket winners

We are pleased to announce the recipients of the Olympic ticket allocations. All the tickets are being given to local people and deserving causes. Some of the allocations were previously announced at the Epping Forest District Council Civic Awards in March. Winners of our Olympic tickets have been selected from different backgrounds and range in age from 7 to 91 years of age. Adversity, sporting achievement and volunteering feature prominently in the reasons for selection.
