From Local Roots to Thriving Community
Enact is more than a service: it’s a growing, evolving community rooted in trust, inclusion, and care.
Our journey began in 2003, when we were registered as the Enfield Island Youth & Community Trust (EIYCT). Initially focused on supporting young people aged 13–19 living in Enfield Island Village, our work quickly grew in response to the needs of the community. What started as a small initiative became a vital presence in the lives of local families.
In 2006, we began working in partnership with Oasis UK, broadening our offer through local schools and hubs. This helped us strengthen our team and increase our reach. By 2010, we were delivering after-school clubs for 4–11s, trips, family events, and early years activities. Volunteering became central to our approach, with young people and parents stepping up to co-create and lead sessions.
