Get ready for Eastbourne’s annual pancake race

The event will start at 1pm at Banker’s Corner, Terminus Road, on Tuesday, March 5, and finishes at about 3pm.

A St Wilfrid’s spokesperson said, “Our pancake race is a simple relay style race over a fixed distance with flipping points.

“Meaning you don’t have to worry about following a route - just concentrating on keeping the pancake in the pan.

“Spectators are more than welcome, even encouraged!”

Each runner will be raising at least £30 in sponsorship for the much-loved charity – and there will be opportunities for members of the public to donate on the day.
