A one-hour version of the 1000th edition of Neil Ogden's Sound of Sunday, which was originally broadcast live from Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, was broadcast, which as well as celebrating the park as it is today, highlighted the role of the volunteer Park Champions in keeping the legacy of London 2012 alive. Neil spoke to Kathleen McEnteggart, one of the hundreds of volunteers who do a range of different jobs from running the information point and mobility service to conservation, to guiding visitors and providing information at the many big events that happen in the park.
