The Macclesfield Pancake Race is just days away!

On Tuesday, February 17, the cobblestones of Mill Street will sizzle once again as the town's 'most eccentric' tradition returns.

Starting at midday, local workers, students and community groups will be ditching the office and competing in a series of high-speed relay races, navigating the street while flipping pancakes.

In doing so, they will help to raise vital funds for East Cheshire NHS Charity.

Lily Preston, fundraising manager for East Cheshire NHS Charity, said: "The Pancake Race has become a cornerstone of our fundraising calendar.

"It's a brilliant way for the Macclesfield community to come together, have a laugh, and provide tangible support to the healthcare services we all rely on."

Registration is now open at £40 per team of four. and every penny raised goes directly to East Cheshire NHS Charity.

Teams can secure their spot by filling out the online registration form here.
