As pancake racing around the Guildhall Yard enters its third decade, the Company race team is even now limbering up. Under the august leadership of our Master, Matthew Peppitt– ably assisted by Michael Ashdown – we will enter 4 runners. The other two places will be filled by a Lady runner and a Novelty runner. We hope to maintain, or conceivably surpass, our dignified record to date.
If you would like to join in as a runner, please contact alison.lovejoy.delorie@btinternet.com No experience is required, and pots, pans, cakes, aprons and lunch in the Crypt are all provided. As there are only two places do bid early.
All supporters can join in the fun and book lunch. You will also receive a special mug! Details of lunch and all arrangements will follow but, in the meantime, be sure to put this in your diary and click on the link to view the flyer. Inter-Livery Pancake Race Flyer

At the inaugural United Guilds’ Service, in 1943, all the City Livery Companies and Guilds gathered in St Paul’s Cathedral to lift their spirits after the Blitz. The Service continues, in a similar form, to this day and remains one of the few occasions when the City Livery Companies and Guilds gather as one.
This year, the Service will be held at St Paul’s Cathedral on the morning of Friday 20th March, after which there is an opportunity to join with other Companies for lunch at nearby Plaisterers’ Hall.
For further information and how to book, please see the flyer.

We are delighted to arrange a return visit to the College of Arms on 5 May 2026. More details will follow later but put it in your diaries now.
The College of Arms is the official heraldic authority for England, Wales, Northern Ireland and much of the Commonwealth including Australia and New Zealand. The College is responsible for granting of new coats of Arms to individual and corporate bodies. It maintains registers of arms, pedigrees, genealogist, Royal Licences, changes of names and flags.
We will go on a tour of this 1670s building on 5th May. The tour includes an explanation of the history of heralds, heraldry and College of Arms, and we will be shown a wide selection of some of the most interesting and beautiful manuscripts.
The tour starts at 6.30 which will include refreshments at 8 which will take the form of sandwiches, cakes and wine. Places are limited so if you wish to register your interest in advance or receive more information, please contact alison.lovejoy.delorie@btinternet.com.
