Vital Forum Meeting & Vote

Unless we get people volunteering to manage and run the Forum, we will be forced to close as a Trust and charity.

We need new people to run the Forum – otherwise we will not be able to continue.

We are holding an Extraordinary General Meeting on 29 October (see details on p16 of the new Forum Focus) where we will vote on the motion: ‘that this Forum will close on 31 March 2025 as a Trust as designated by the Charities Commission’.

More details in the October/November edition of Forum Focus just out. It should be with you over the next couple of days. As always, it is on this site and you can read it here.

Your forum needs you!

As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, many of our members have not renewed their membership. The Forum relies on membership fees for a substantial portion of our income and we will not be able to continue the great work we do if our income continues to fall. So make sure you help us raise funds by:

  • renewing your membership promptly – or even
  • becoming a Lifetime member,
  • encouraging others to join the Forum,
  • signing up to the Lottery Club, or even
  • sending us a special donation!


Call the office between 10am and 2pm Mon to Thurs for further information or email info@enfieldover50sforum.org.uk.

The December / January newsletter has lots of articles explaining the vital work we do to help keep Enfield’s older people healthy active and informed.
