Flipping ‘Eck! It’s The Big Beverley Pancake Race 12.00 Sunday 2nd March 2025

The call is going out for restaurants, cafes, shops, businesses and groups to get

together a team of four willing pancake tossers, get sponsors or just run for fun and

enter the relay race over an 80-metre course designed to encourage a sensible mix

of skill and speed. Fancy dress is encouraged, however non-slip training shoes are

required. Frying pans and pancakes will be supplied.

The event is supported by Beverley Town Council and organised by The Rotary Club

of Beverley and is aimed at bringing townsfolk and businesses together to celebrate

an old custom of the town for some winter cheer. Teams are encouraged to obtain

sponsorship to raise money for their own good causes and the Rotary Club will be

having a bucket collection for their own registered charitable trust, but the

emphasis is on fun.

Dave Campbell, President of the Rotary Club of Beverley, said “I am delighted that

we have been asked to run this event again as it has become a regular fixture in

the town’s calendar providing a lot of fun for both spectators and competitors.

There will be prizes for the Winning Team and Best Dressed Team with medals for

everyone. We hope many local residents will come to Toll Gavel to share in the fun

and support the teams in their races’’.
