The Hampton Society is primarily concerned with the protection and development of the local environment, both built and natural, and to ensure that the provision of amenities enhances the quality of life for the residents of Hampton.
We think Hampton is pretty special. We welcome improvements to our surroundings as long as they don't adversely affect the well being of the village and its residents.
If you feel the same way and would like to find out more about the village you live in then we welcome you to join the Society today.
We welcome new people of all ages and encourage our existing members to introduce the Society to their neighbours and friends. If you know someone who is interested in joining us and would like more information, please pass their details on to Trisha Shirt, our membership secretary. Our application form offers regular payment by cash or cheque, or by standing order.
We can achieve so much more with
a strong membership!

Sam Redfern,Olympics disruption in the borough
The borough will be particularly busy this summer with thousands of spectators coming to the borough for the Olympic Road Cycling Races, Time Trials and Torch Relay.
This is inevitably going to have an impact on our local roads and public transport.
To help support businesses and local organisations during this time, we have organised a series of briefings – covering key issues such as road closures and parking suspensions, which will obviously impact on your business in terms of staffing, customers and deliveries.
Maharishi School or Church School?
There’s lots going on in the Oldfield Road area at the moment. Not only is the new Waitrose opening it's doors but there are now two bids to open a free school in the currently empty Oldfield Centre (until recently a special needs school).
If you’ve opened January's Richmond magazine, you will know that the first proposal is for a Maharishi Free School for ages 4-18 and one of the presentations has already taken place. There will be another one this Thursday, January 12th, 7.30pm at Clarendon Hall, York House, Richmond Road, Twickenham TW1 3AA.
Bake a cake for the Hampton Fun Day
Those of you who are not visiting Brooklands may wish to attend this hugely successful all- day family event which returns to Beveree in Station Road, Hampton. We will be having another cake stall to promote the Society to new members. Last year we had many kindly donated yummy cakes of all descriptions that helped raise over £200 towards the Fun Day charities.
Come along and enjoy a day of fun and games and feel part of the local community.
Please contact Sam Redfern on 8286 7071 if you can help with cakes or manning our stand.
