Working together for a welcoming and thriving Edmonton - where everyone feels welcome, represented, and celebrated.

With £11.9 million of funding from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, Enfield Council has a special opportunity to make lasting improvements to the neighbourhood – supporting a more vibrant, attractive, greener, cleaner, and safer place for all.

In collaboration with the community, we’re delivering projects that will improve public spaces and connections, create opportunities, nurture inclusion, support wellbeing, and celebrate Edmonton’s culture and heritage.


What’s happening

Over the next two years we will deliver:

  • More inviting and accessible parks at Florence Hayes Rec and Raynham Green
  • A new play space on the Joyce and Snell’s Estate
  • A more welcoming Fore Street with footway upgrades and resurfaced high street
  • An expanded Leeds Street Market with space for more traders and events
  • A safer pedestrian crossing at Silver Street Station
  • A walking and cycling route linking the area to Meridian Water
  • Better community facilities on the Joyce and Snell’s Estate
  • Enhanced cultural space at Angel Community Centre
  • Refurbished workspaces at Community House


Building on success

This programme is part of significant wider council and government investment in Edmonton and builds on improvements already delivered, including Angel Yard, the Living Room Library, and the Fore Street Murals – projects that have brought new opportunities and pride to the area.


Working in partnership

Alongside the community, we’re working with the Greater London Authority, the Metropolitan Police, and Transport for London to design and deliver this comprehensive programme for Edmonton.


Be part of it

Your ideas and experiences are vital. We’ll be working with residents, businesses, and community groups throughout the programme to make sure these projects reflect local priorities. Visit the Community Room in the Living Room Library on Fore Street, N18 to see what’s planned, take part in workshops, and share your views.
