Health and Safety Executive has not banned this event (any many other things they've been blamed for).

As usual with things like this health and safety is merely an excuse for people not being able to organise a cheese roll on a steep hill. Probably due to the costs of correctly policing such a popular public event has meant it financially non-viable.
Anyone for a game of conkers....
