About the Forum

The Forum is open to all over 50s in the Borough of Enfield and its members are drawn from the rich and diverse ethnic mix of Enfield multicultural population. There are some 80,000 people over 50 residing in Enfield and members come from all areas including the east of the borough where there is considerable deprivation.

Objects of the Forum

Our Forum seeks to:
Influence the decision-makers nationally and locally on such matters as: health, educational and leisure activities, transport, social and community care, housing, age discrimination in employment, pensions and benefits.
Our Forum aims to:

• Listen and respond to the views of people over 50.

• Maximise opportunities for the over-50s.

• Influence the formulation and implementation of policy.

• Involve more older people in decision-making.

• Monitor and test performance in meeting the needs of over-50s.

We believe that older people represent a resource and a force that, working in partnership with others, can help make Enfield a borough to be proud of.
