News
Please help us to raise £1,200 to have Hampton Hill’s main Christmas Tree lit up this year!
We will be celebrating 60 Years of Christmas Parades this year and we would love to get the community involved.
Last year we received donations from local businesses and local residents whose family name was added to the main Christmas Tree. This was very well received by families and we would love to do this again this year!
We would love families of Hampton Hill to assist us with this by sponsoring the main High Street tree! For £20 your family name can be added to the banner around its base for everyone to see and for your little ones to hunt for!
Click here to go to our Just Giving page if you are able to help us provide this focal point to the High Street’s festive celebrations. We will be so grateful for your support. Please include your family name when making your donation of £20 and come along to locate this on the banner around the tree on or after the night of the parade, Friday 29 November 5.30-8.30pm.
We can’t wait to see you there!

Celebrating Sweet, Salty, Umami Success!
We are thrilled to announce that Made by Adele, a local gem, has earned a prestigious Three Stars at the international Great Taste Awards! Adele Hing’s standout creation, a banana brown sugar sponge cake layered with miso caramel and roasted peanut Swiss meringue buttercream, is also nominated for an even more coveted Golden Fork award!
Described by judges as “simply outstanding” and a “flavour blaster”, this cake is a must-try. Adele calls it a cake with a “cult-like following”. Customers can’t get enough of this unique blend of sweetness, saltiness, and umami magic! Whether for birthdays, parties, or weddings, this cake turns every occasion into a celebration.
Adele’s award-winning cake in all its glory (Adele is photograph by Esme Ducker; cake photography by Tim Johnston for the Guild of Fine Food ).
Adele’s other cakes are also in the spotlight, with two receiving Two Stars and another earning One Star. Her culinary expertise and passion make Made by Adele a true local treasure.

Hampton Hill Improvements on Their Way!
The Hampton Hill Improvement Group is a small group of local people interested in improving the local high street working with Councillors and Richmond Borough Council. In the last few years, we have run a competition to rename ‘Templeton Place’ and will soon be installing wildflower planters and repainted benches and flags to animate the area and make it a more pleasant place to spend time.
If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Georgia Ballantine our Town Centre Manager by email here.
