The focus of the Council’s Active Enfield Team’s programme of activities is to encourage inactive and less active people, particularly older people to become physically active so they stay healthier for longer and improve their physical and mental health. The Active Enfield Team organises and operates its own physical activity programme with a variety of sessions taking place in various community locations throughout the year.

We also apply for funding from external sources to provide physical activity sessions and to improve the sport and leisure facilities in the borough, we organise teams to take part in the London Youth Games, an annual event involving sporting competitions for young people from all of London’s 33 boroughs, and we oversee the contract in place with Fusion Lifestyle, the charity which operates the leisure centres on behalf of the Local Authority, to ensure opportunities for all residents to take part in physical activity.
