Whilst Pancake Day has crêped up, Tendring District Council’s (TDC) team at Sunspot in Jaywick Sands have been busy whisking up a pancake extravaganza.

The Sunspot will be hosting a free Pancake Day event in conjunction with Jaywick Sands Community Forum and sponsored by Rainy Bakes.

Everyone is invited to attend to enjoy a complimentary delicious pancake and take part in some flipping fun on Tuesday, 13 February from 4-6pm.

There are three competitions taking place with a children's flipping competition (sponsored by Buddies Barbers), the biggest pancake flip competition (sponsored by Sunspot Café), and a pancake race (sponsored by Blingrus & Luxescent Studio).

Ivan Henderson, TDC Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Economic Growth, Regeneration and Tourism, was delighted by the event and encouraged residents to come along.

“With everyone feeling the pinch, it’s fantastic to spread the joy of this popular occasion with our residents.

“I’d like to thank everyone involved, especially the Jaywick Sands Community Forum who have very generously supported us again at Sunspot.”
