Welcome to This Is Chinnor, THE site for Chinnor, a village in the foothills of the Chilterns.

We're a friendly village with lots of activities, sports and events. We created this website to help keep everyone up to date and to provide news and information about such activities and the community groups that organise and manage them. They let us know what's going on and we share this with everyone.

All local groups are welcome to promote their events with us, just get in touch and we'll put it on the site. Don't forget to send us a poster.

Local news is all around us and as almost everyone now carries a camera with them on their phone, they can take photos, are you a budding journalist? a cub reporter or just someone who happens to be in the right place at the right time? again just tell us the news and we'll share it here.

We hope you find the site useful but if you think there's something missing do please get in touch and we'll endeavour to add it. You can add comments to selected articles on the site and send us some feedback via our VISITORS BOOK.
