Save the Forum

A possible new forum for older residents following the planned closure of the Enfield Borough Over 50s Forum.

Introduction

Following the planned closure of the Enfield Borough Over 50s Forum on 8 June 2026, we are exploring whether a new, independent organisation can continue some valued services, communication, and community benefits.

This is not a continuation of the existing Forum, but an opportunity to build something new, simpler, and more sustainable for those who wish to remain involved.

Why This Matters

Without an alternative, these services will come to an end. This initiative is about understanding whether members would like to see something continue in a new form.

What Happens Next

At this stage, no decisions have been made. We are simply asking whether there is enough interest from members to support a new organisation.

If there is sufficient interest, a new organisation would be developed gradually, with a focus on keeping costs low, providing practical value, and ensuring long-term sustainability.
