Enfield Town Steering Group: Expense Policy

Our Vision

Enfield Town will be a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable destination that celebrates its unique identity — from its industrial and literary heritage to its diverse cultural fabric. Rooted in its market town origins and suburban character, Enfield will promote opportunity through enterprise, education, and the arts. It will be a place where communities, businesses and visitors thrive in a safe, clean, and welcoming environment. Through local events, a growing night-time economy, creative use of space, and strong partnerships, Enfield will foster pride, long-term stewardship, and equity — giving everyone a meaningful stake in its future.

Preserving the town centre’s heritage and identity
Developing a stronger night-time economy
Facilitate more cultural family friendly intergenerational activities

Generate opportunities for all people to be involved in, lead, shape creative activities - especially young people
