Who are H&IVSoc and what do we do?

Welcome

Welcome to the Histon and Impington Village Society (H&IVSoc)! Nestled in the heart of Cambridgeshire, our vibrant community strives to connect present residents and those with an interest in the area with the rich tapestry of our villages' history and foster a sense of belonging for all. Founded in 1979, we're a passionate group of locals dedicated to preserving, sharing, and celebrating the unique stories of Histon and Impington.

Building Bridges, Fostering Connections:

H&IVSoc is more than just a repository of dusty archives. We believe that history breathes life into the present, creating a deeper understanding of our community's character and values. Through our engaging monthly talks, social events, and community projects, we bridge the gap between generations, forging connections between new and established residents. Whether you're a seasoned historian or simply curious about your neighbourhood, we offer a welcoming space to share knowledge, ideas, and a fair bit of laughter too.

Looking Ahead, Rooted in Tradition:

While we cherish the past, we also embrace the ever-evolving present. We actively engage with residents and local bodies to advocate for the preservation of our historical landmarks and green spaces, ensuring that our heritage enriches the lives of future generations. We collaborate with other community groups to organise vibrant events and initiatives, keeping the spirit of Histon and Impington alive and kicking.
