The village society was founded in 1962 with just 30 members and has grown from small beginnings. By 1972, ten years on, membership had increased to 153 households and has since risen steadily to around 450.
Quality of village life lies at the heart of our vision for Little Kingshill. We want every member of our community to be able to enjoy the natural beauty of the village, its rural setting and rich heritage and benefit from superior local amenities and infrastructure: public spaces, buildings, footpaths, highways and the surrounding countryside.
By providing a channel for the voice of the community and bringing the village together at events, we aim to foster a tangible sense of community spirit, belonging and pride.
The Society exists to foster a strong sense of community, through mutual support, sharing information and collective action.
We value our village’s natural beauty, rural character and rich heritage and we will work to protect and enhance them for everyone to enjoy.
We will listen to residents’ concerns and views, and ensure their voices are heard on issues affecting village life.
By advocating for local facilities, monitoring safety concerns, and working with relevant organizations/bodies, we aim to help keep our community safe and well-cared for.
We will collaborate with local groups and organise social events to bring people together, creating a welcoming and connected village for all.
After 50 years the Village Society has now a formal constitution,
initially adopted at the 2018 AGM with some amendments approved at
the 2025 AGM . The General Data Protection Regulations require that organisations that hold individual's
personal information meet certain criteria for its care. The Village Society did produce a handbook annually.
The contained village news, useful information and details of local contacts and servicesand
was distributed by volunteers to residents who have registered their
interest in receiving a copy.
Production of the handbook is now
suspended and it is intended that the information included in
the handbook will be posted on this website instead.
This was considered appropriate as it is normal for our type of society to have a
constitution and it allows us to access potential funds or grants, not available to
local government organisations.
