Hello, I’m Dominic.

A curious mind.Practical hands.

Dominic Chiappe

I’m based in Turville. My background spans engineering, technology and managing complex projects. I also enjoy making things and finding practical answers to awkward problems.

The Village Idiot brings those interests together: personal, hands-on help for people in the village and the surrounding valley.

That might mean making something for a particular space, helping with a repair, finding a useful piece or making sense of a digital idea. The starting point is the same: what do you want to achieve?

A good place to start

Have something in mind?

A photo, a rough idea or “can you help with this?” is enough to start a conversation.
