A flipping marvelous time awaits homeowners and visitors to a local retirement community when they celebrate Shrove Tuesday on Tuesday 21st February – with the chance to win fabulous prizes too.

Devonshire Place, a Retirement Living Plus development by McCarthy Stone, the UK’s leading developer and manager of retirement communities, will host the ‘Flipping Challenge’ event from 2pm to 4pm.

The event will challenge entrants to see how many pancakes they can toss in just 60 seconds, with the top three each winning a sumptuous lunch in the on-site bistro.

The Shrove Tuesday celebration at the Station Road development is one of a regular series of events held by McCarthy Stone, which are aimed at bringing together homeowners, family and friends, and the wider Buxton community.

Visitors at the event will also be able to take a tour of the development and discover more about the unique retirement lifestyle on offer at Devonshire Place, where half of the 70-luxury apartment have already been snapped up.

We look forward to welcoming family, friends and other retirees keen to discover more about what’s on offer here – and, of course, to seeing who the champion is in our competition!”
