The first of a series of summer pig races got underway in Brean, near Burnham-On-Sea, on Tuesday evening (July 22nd) when over 350 people cheered on the animals as they raced around a circuit at the village’s leisure park.
The fundraising charity events will be held each Tuesday during the summer holidays until August 26th, and also include donkey racing (pictured right).
The entrance gate was manned by Highbridge and Burnham St John Ambulance Cadets, who were one of the groups benefiting from the event along with Burnham Sea Cadets.
The pig and donkey races will will be held each Tuesday at 7pm until August 26th.
