It will be available via iTunes and be free of charge. It will enable the user to access critical information on Met-Track and also receive news updates about the scheme direct to their phone.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">"Making optimum use of new technology is very much part of modern day business," said John Powell, "and Met-Track can be no exception. We have to keep up, and take advantage of any opportunities there may be out there to enhance delivery of our service, and promote the Met-Track brand."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Included on the new website will be the 2012 Inspire mark, which was recently awarded to Met-Track, along with links to relevant sites, not least the 2012 'Get Set' programme that Met-Track actively endorses with all its schemes.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Met-Track is also going to vigorously promote its Schools and Communities Involvement Programme 'SCIP' - this takes Met-Track into schools and local community venues rather than simply tracks and sports centres, and has proved immensely popular, not to mention effective over the last few months.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">"We will be opening Met-Track academies all over London," said John Powell, "as demand from schools and other organisations has been very encouraging. Money is being raised to finance each of them, so there is clearly a demand.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">"We have a very unique ;product to sell. Coaching by top level athletes in itself is a huge opportunity, but we are developing an increasing number of life opportunities for young people who engage with us, and the 'success' rate in reducing or preventing offending is consistently high."</span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7395635301334413298-2599980884763267133?l=mettracknews.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Met-Trackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13220735638171936998noreply@blogger.com0
