Enfield Council has signed an agreement with the Mayor of London which means £2.2m will be spent to deliver major regeneration works in Edmonton and create a better town centre. The decision means the cash can be used to improve the look and feel of Angel Edmonton, provide a community hub with better library services, 30 affordable workspaces to increase employment and skills in the area, and a school street to help improve air quality. And in further good news for the area the New London Awards has announced the Fore Street, Angel Edmonton Good Growth Fund Project as the winner of the award in their best Meanwhile Use category for the proposal to create a versatile ‘Urban Room’ on the high street. The scheme will re-purpose existing garages as affordable work and studio space for local businesses, and deliver place-making through public realm improvements.
A crowdfunding campaign launched by Enfield Council to help small and micro businesses in the borough has raised nearly £17,000, edging closer to its final target. The aim of the Small Business Hardship Fund is to encourage larger businesses, whose circumstances allow, to make a donation to smaller and micro businesses who may be struggling as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and who have not benefited from existing government support measures.
This year we have successfully launched our in-house repairs service to improve the quality of our homes and resident experience. We are now seeking a commercial, customer focused leader that can build from what has been achieved and take the service forward with and alongside residents and members. The next stage will involve implementing a new IT and customer response solution. We are also looking for someone that understands that a home is a reflection of the lives of our residents and who can ensure that we use the opportunity to help safeguard and support residents.
Stunning artworks on hoardings surrounding the first phase of the £6 billion Meridian Water project have been officially revealed as part of the Enjoy Enfield Summer fortnight. Three Enfield artists – Adam David, Karen Rubins and Duncan James – worked with the local community and schools to deliver their modern-day masterpieces reflecting the past, present and future of Upper Edmonton and the Meridian Water regeneration scheme. They were selected after a competitive tender process last year and worked with Meridian Angel Primary School, Northside Youth and Community Connections and West Lea School to get their designs on the hoardings around Meridian Water Station at Angel Edmonton Road. The works were unveiled as part of a fortnight of free, outdoor arts and culture events organised by Enfield Council to showcase local talent and to thank the borough for all they have done to help communities throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
