become a torchbearer for the London 2012
Olympics this year.
• I was nominated for my passion in Abseiling,
Climbing and Scouting.

6. My nomination
• My scout leader nominated me for these
reasons:
“Nirav is a quiet but inspiring young man. As an explorer scout he is a
conscientious and committed young leader helping cub scouts between
the ages of 8 & 11. He began to learn how to climb as a scout and is now
extending his climbing and abseiling skills so he can teach others in the
future.”

• I hope to run in Thanet.
• I will be running one leg of the torch relay
which is 300 metres.
• I will run in mid-July.

8. The Torch
• It is gold in colour to represent London.
• It features 8000 holes to represent each of
the 8000 torchbearers.
• It is triangular in shape to represent the
Olympic motto: “faster, stronger, higher”.
