Enfield Youth Elections 2024 – 2025
For all Headteachers, Deputy Heads, Phase Leaders, PSHE Leads, Heads of Year and Pastoral Staff in all Enfield Schools & SEN Schools/Settings
We are introducing the Enfield Youth Elections 2024 – 2025 which is scheduled to take place from the 4th of November 2024 to the 20th of January 2025. This is an exciting opportunity for your students to engage in local democracy and have a voice in decision-making within Enfield.
As part of Enfield Council's commitment to creating a lifetime of opportunity for everyone in Enfield, empowering children and young people in the borough is essential. We believe that involving young people in the Enfield Youth Elections is a crucial step towards achieving this goal.
Attached, you will find a ‘School Pack’ including information about the Enfield Youth Council and a ‘Flyer’, which provide detailed information about the Enfield Youth Elections and how students can participate. Included in both documents is a link to the Enfield Youth Council website which includes an Enfield Youth Video that demonstrates the successful projects and campaigns that the Enfield Youth Council have been working on and guides young people on how to participate in the Elections.

I encourage you to share these materials with your students and encourage them to take advantage of this valuable opportunity by registering online and attending the Open Day to gain more information and insight into the role of an Enfield Youth Council member and the Enfield Youth Elections. The Enfield Youth Elections Open Day will take place on Thursday 30th May from 5.30pm – 7pm at Enfield Civic Centre: Silver St, Enfield EN1 3XA.
