Where will your next journey take you?

Enfield people are making daily choices for a more vibrant, greener and healthier future.

Love being local

The Journeys and Places programme is connecting communities to create a more vibrant, greener and healthier Enfield.

An Enfield Council programme, we offer people training and resources, and host community events. We work with the Enfield community to design and deliver projects across the borough to make it safer and easier for you to choose to walk, cycle, wheel, or scoot, and enjoy your local places.
