Our history

Serving Since 2009

The Little Chalfont Community Association was formed in April 2009 following an amalgamation between the Little Chalfont Village Society and the Little Chalfont Revitalisation Group.


The Little Chalfont Village Society had its roots in the 1960s, during a successful campaign to stop property development on Green Belt land and continued to work to improve the amenities of the Village and to monitor and comment on planning applications.

Daffodil bulbs have been planted in and around the village verges, and the Society also supported the hanging basket display above the village shops. Together with a local school, the Society successfully campaigned for railings between the footpath and the busy A404 road under the railway bridge, and campaigned over many years for a separate Parish Council for Little Chalfont which was achieved in 2007.

The Little Chalfont Revitalisation Group, part of the network of similar bodies within the then Chiltern District Council area, was formed in 2003 to help the whole community thrive, being able to obtain grants from the local District, County and Parish Councils that would have been inaccessible to the Village Society. It took responsibility for organising the hanging basket display, the Christmas lights and the annual Village Day.

The merger of the two organisations in 2009 to form The Little Chalfont Community Association, has enabled us to better combine resources to focus on our community, whilst retaining the criteria of the revitalisation group to enable grants to be sought as appropriate, and liaison with Buckinghamshire council and their Amersham and Villages Community Board.
