Defibrillators

In a cardiac emergency there are 2 defibrillators in Little Kingshill,
one at the Village Hall (HP16 0DZ, outside the entrance on wall to the left)
and the other at The Full Moon Pub (HP16 0EE, on the wall nearest the road).

CALL 999, they can provide you with the ACCESS CODE for either machine in an emergency and talk you through what to do.

We were very lucky to have 2 local First Responders provide the basics of CPR and how to access and use a defibrillator to 50 local residents at the Village Hall on Saturday 17th January 2025.
A huge thank you to Bob Davy and Nick George from South Central Ambulance Service. They said they had never seen such a huge turn out in one village.

Current Local Issues

Chiltern and South Bucks Local Plan 2036

Chiltern District Council and South Bucks District Council have prepared a joint Local Plan, which sets out how the Chiltern and South Bucks Districts will develop over the next 20 years. For more information see: https://www.chiltern.gov.uk/planning/localplan.

HS2 Campaign

Little Kingshill Village Society strongly opposed the construction of the high speed railway through the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

We continue to closely monitor the impact HS2 has on the Chilterns as the eight year construction period progresses and work with HS2 review groups in the AONB and in the Colne Valley with a view to reducing the disruption the railway will bring to local communities and the environment.

In addition we publish regular email updates on latest developments to keep communities informed.

Further information can be found from the Stop HS2 Campaign: Contacts: Penny Gaines, Chair & Social Media Director;

Enforcement of the Speed Limit

The speed limit of 30 miles per hour through the village is believed to be exceeded frequently, particularly on Windsor Lane

Little Kingshill Village Society supports measures to limit the speed, such as speed activated "Slow Down" signs

Pot Holes

Several of the roads through the village have an unacceptable level of pot holes, potentially hazardous, particularly to cyclists, and damaging to cars.

Little Kingshill Village Society lobbies the local council for improvements to the condition of our roads, however, the more reports that go in the better. Contact Transportfor Bucks: https://www.fixmystreet.buckscc.gov.uk to report a pot hole:.

Fly Tipping

Illegal dumping of both domestic and trade wastes around the countryside is a serious nusisance and cost to our community

Little Kingshill Village Society promotes awareness of this issue and recommends that any action of a suspicious nature is reported promptly to our community police and to Transport for Bucks https://www.fixmystreet.buckscc.gov.uk.
