We are a group of local residents who have been independently representing the people of Hampton for over 60 years.
Our aims are to preserve and enhance the area’s beauty and interest and to encourage a strong sense of community by sharing information and arranging interesting talks and events throughout the year.
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.
7.30pm, Thursday 5 December at St Mary's community hall
Embrace the festive spirit and join us on Thursday, 5th December, for an unforgettable evening of jazz and camaraderie, just in time for Christmas! The hall will be transformed into a jazz club for the night with tables available for up to six on each.
Even if you’re planning to attend by yourself, don’t worry! We’ll happily introduce you to other guests with spaces on their tables, ensuring you don’t miss out on the chance to make new connections while enjoying the music.
Tickets are available here for just £10.00 each, making this a truly affordable way to experience the magic of jazz this Christmas season. Whether you’re coming with a group of friends or enjoying a solo evening out, we’ll make sure you have a memorable time.
We regret that, owing to licensing restrictions, we are unable to sell alcohol for this event. You may bring your own alcoholic beverages for your personal consumption and we shall provide you with glasses from the bar.
