Local Authorities and Event Organisers how have a health and safety ally to ensure that their Pancake Race goes ahead by following the Pancake Race Top Safety Tips.

These Top Tips are the brainchild of Managing Director Bettina Ratcliffe who has become fed up with reading endless stories that this well loved Tradition has been banned on grounds of Elf n Safety.

Bettina Ratcliffe commented, “Good risk management strategies should encompass mental well-being and a Pancake Race is just the thing to cheer us all up in the gloom”

“The Local Government Ombudsman (Amendment) Bill 2001-11 designed to give redress to the community where events such as this are banned on grounds of health and safety will get is second reading on 18^th March 2011 and certainly won’t be in force by Pancake Day on Tuesday 8^th March. Therefore everything possible should be done to ensure that this type of event goes ahead and this is where the Pancake Race Top Safety Tips help.
