Queen Alexandra College (QAC) student, Charlie, has been selected as a Games Ambassador Team Member at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games taking place this summer.

As a Games Ambassador, Charlie will be an ambassador for the local community. His pride and passion for the region will help enrich the experiences of residents and visitors – helping people find their way around whilst sharing key information.

The third year BTEC Performing Arts student completed the interview process to volunteer at the Games in September last year. Candidates have been selected that can provide excellent customer service and love to offer a helping hand.

Charlie, who joined the College as a residential student in 2019 said: “I’m delighted to have been selected as a Games Ambassador. I am so proud of myself and really excited to be part of this iconic sporting event!”

Birmingham will be hosting the 2022 Commonwealth Games, which will be held in various venues across Birmingham and the West Midlands from 28 July until 8 August 2022. The Games will be one of the biggest sporting and cultural events that the city and the region has ever seen.
