The\u00a0Soroptimist International Newbury & District Pancake Races & Lunches event on Shrove Tuesday raised over \u00a3700 for our nominated charity for 2019-2020, The Alexandra Devine Children’s Hospice. 18 teams from local businesses and organisations battled it out for the much-coveted winning Trophy. We would like to thank\u00a0all the sponsors who gave us\u00a0their generous support:\u00a0 The Newbury Weekly News, Henwick Properties, Gecko Communications, Accounting & Taxation Centre, Newbury Building Society, Lifecycle Software Ltd and WBRRC,\u00a0 also all the teams who participated in the races. Our thanks also goes to The Mayor of Newbury, Cllr Elizabeth O’Keeffe who\u00a0started the races assisted by Brian Sylvester town crier,\u00a0 the team of Stewards, Garry Poulson for his competent and amusing commentary,\u00a0the Corn Exchange, Newbury Town Council, West Berkshire Council. \u00a0 The Newbury Weekly News continued their support by not only sponsoring the overall prize but also for the fantastic\u00a0ads leading up to the event.<\/p>\n

The Overall Winner’s Trophy this year went to Lifecycle Sotware Ltd. The best dressed team sponsored by Henwick Properties, went to MAXX Design with their crayon-themed costumes, and the coveted best pancake tosser of the year sponsored by Gecko Communications\u00a0was awarded to ‘Joseph’ from the St Nicolas Church team. Following the races the Mayor of Newbury tossed pancakes from the Town Hall balcony\u00a0to a member of each running team and then the\u00a0Mayor tossed more pancakes to the local children waiting below.<\/p>\n

Following the races delicious pancake lunches were served in\u00a0St Nicolas\u00a0Church hall by a brilliant team of Soroptimists, friends and supporters.
