Restarting the Windlesham Pram Race
The Pram Race has been run on Boxing Day in varying formats for well over 50 years.
Our primary purpose in restarting the race after the Covid restrictions has been to raise money for charity and support
deserving causes in the local community.
Many who took part in a survey prior to the event wanted the Pram Race format to continue but want it modified to
address some of the behavioural issues that have been experienced in the past few years.
We have many lessons to learn and adjustments to make. That is especially the case with the format changes to produce a
more family-oriented event.
We believe that supporting the village pubs and the Club is important; several of whom chose to open after the race was
over.
Putting on an event of this type requires the support of a huge number of people and commercial organisations. We wish
to thanks to our commercial sponsors and supporters:
- Gordon Murray Group;
- Newton Rowe;,
- Frog Bikes;
- The Wooldridge Group;
- Shorts Group;
- The Windlesham Club and
- The Rashoi.
There can be no race without our excellent 28 volunteer marshals who also deserve special thanks.
We will be back next year. The Pram Race will continue to evolve and change.
If you share our commitment to raising money for charity and believe that you can work with us to improve the
organisation of the Pram Race for 2023, please contact us.
