Held every four years, the ninth National Summer Games will be held in the city of Bath from 28 August to 01 September 2013
The House has created an event logo that captures the feel good nature of the games and marries it with one of Bath’s most iconic attractions, the Royal Crescent in a fresh and colourful fashion.
The website was launched at a civic reception in the Guildhall attended by Olympian, Jason Gardener. The website was created in conjunction with digital specialists, Storm and in its first 24 hours, the site already attracted 10% of the total number of volunteers required.
Karen Wallin, CEO of Special Olympics GB commented: “We are thrilled with the new look website and identity for the National Summer Games in Bath which has been created by local agency, The House. We are delighted with the vibrancy and colour which has been injected into the look and feel of the logo and online.”
