Story

What is the Pancake Race?

Launchpad's Pancake Race sees local businesses don their best fancy dress, flip pancakes in relay races down Broad Street and batter it out for the coveted frying pan trophy!

Taking place on Shrove Tuesday, 21st February 2023, this flipping egg-citing lunchtime event attracts crowds of shoppers, who egg on the teams from the sidelines from 12.30pm.

All funds raised at the Pancake Race will help fund Launchpads vital services for people who are homeless or at risk of losing their home which includes supported housing, a free drop-in service for anyone in housing crisis and our work and life skills centre.
