Young people from Lancaster District will have the chance to represent the city, meet visitors from across Europe and take part in sport, culture and friendship events. 

Host families will play a vital role in welcoming visiting young people and leaders, helping Lancaster offer a warm and memorable Games experience. 

Volunteers will help with the smooth running of the Games, including event support, welcome teams, information points and practical help during the week. 

Sports clubs and leaders are central to the Games, helping organise teams, venues, competition formats and links with visiting cities. 

Schools and youth organisations can help young people hear about the Games, support cultural activity and encourage community involvement. 

Local businesses, organisations and supporters can help through sponsorship, practical support, services, fundraising or spreading the word.
