John Hinkly has lived in Little Chalfont since 1977. He has two daughters who were educated in local schools.
He wants to maintain the village atmosphere and thinks any expansion of Little Chalfont should only be made within the existing infra-structure. He was involved in the original discussions with Bucks County Council over the setting-up of the community library.
After a 40 year career in television he has recently stopped working and feels he can now devote more time to local issues.
