Local race is a 'flipping' success

Gravesend’s third annual Pancake Day race was another huge success with excited spectators lining the High Street all the way from Greggs
to Tesco to cheer on participants competing pan in hand to win the trophy.

Emma Haughey, secretary at Gullands, participated in four heats, including pancake tossing, against a number of staff from other local shops and businesses including Asda, Barclays, Gravesham Borough Council, the British Heart Foundation and NRG Gym.

Emma commented: “It was great to see so many people there and nice to feel part of the Gravesend community.  Whilst I was disappointed not to win, coming second to a personal trainer is no real defeat.”

The race was held as part of Heart Month and all proceeds raised will be donated to the British Heart Foundation.
