Governance

The Network is made up of two types of members to comply with charity law. They are:

• Full Members with voice and vote: Individuals who live, work or study in the London Borough of Enfield. Individuals representing voluntary sector organisations providing services to residents of the London Borough of Enfield.

Associate Members with voice only:

Individuals representing statutory sector organisations providing services to residents of the London Borough of Enfield.

Although associate members do not have a vote under our constitution, they are nevertheless a valuable and valued part of our management committee and fully participate in all discussions relating to the governance, leadership and visioning of the organisation. We always strive to reach a consensus amongst both voting and non-voting members.

3) Objectives and Activities

Before the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans) Network came together there were no dedicated services for the LGBT community in Enfield. Although there were voluntary and statutory organisations in the borough which had LGBT clients, many were unsure of how to make their service appropriate and more accessible to this ‘hard to reach’ community. Many were also aware that LGBT people felt unable or unwilling to access their services. The London Borough of Enfield has no commercial gay venues, and it is therefore very easy for LGBT residents to feel isolated and excluded.

It was for these reasons that the Network was envisaged in June 2003.

We do this through providing support services directly to our community and by supporting other service providers in making their services more appropriate to the needs of the LGBT community. The Network also participates in a large number of consultancy and advisory groups across the borough and beyond representing the LGBT Community.

The Enfield LGBT Network currently facilitates a wide range of services and support groups to the LGBT population of Enfield. These include:

Hate Crime Reporting and Support Services – to assist people experiencing homophobic and transphobic hate crime to report it to the authorities and to support them at every stage
LGBT Group – This weekly peer support group offers a supportive environment for the LGBT community to gain peer support and empowerment. (There are no Gay commercial venues in Enfield).
HIV Positive Gay Men’s Group – This monthly peer support group offers a supportive environment for HIV Positive Gay Men to gain peer support and empowerment. This group is also attended by a complementary therapist and a welfare rights worker by appointment.
Trans Support Sessions – The Network hosts one-to-one support sessions by appointment for clients that identify as Trans. This includes, but is not limited to: men and women with transsexual pasts, intersex, and people who identify as transsexual, transgender, androgyne, genderqueer, intergender, gender variant or with any other gender identity and/or expression which is not standard male or female.
Counselling Service – Generic service for the LGBT client group.
Sexual Health Support and Referral Services – Advice, information and support for any LGBT person concerned about their sexual health including condom provision.
Same Sex Domestic Violence Referral and Support Service - Advice, information and support for any LGBT person experiencing Domestic Violence.
Youth Peer Support Group (Proud) – This six times a month peer support group aims to support 11-18 year olds dealing with the issues of their sexuality, sexual Identity or gender dysphoria.
Young Adults Group – There have been a total of five meetings throughout the period of 2025. The provision is aimed at people navigating their way into adulthood.

Board members also participate in various steering groups representing the Network and the needs of LGBT people in the borough. These include:

Voluntary Sector Strategy Group
Hate Crime Forum Executive Group
Case Management Panel (Chair)
MARAC Meeting (Domestic Violence) when requested
LGBT Youth Services Steering Group (Youth Group)

4) Achievements and Performance

This has been the first year of us transferring over to a mobile number from the previous landline. I can say most of the promotional material now reflects this change and has been successful. A few requests have occurred over the period attempting to make contact via the old, I believe they have found old flyers. We have a steady flow of request for the social group and our counselling services as well as requests from students for a placement. There are minimum of 3 requests per week.

The Network website is a stable source of information for many and it’s often quoted a source for the learning of our support services. We are having some minor technical disruptions with the online form. This will be resolved by January 2026.

We have 3 counsellors working on site on Tuesday evening from 4 – 8pm with a mixture of client sessions both online and in person. We introduced a 4[th] counsellor earlier this year, who operates from another professional site, approved by our lead. Each counsellor has a full compliment of clients and we still have a small waiting list.

In February we celebrated LGBT history month by holding a two week exhibition and opening the centre to the general public. It contained art work and photographs from all members of the community and took over 3 rooms of the building plus the corridor. It was very well attended by local organisations and the local community alike. Over 40 pieces of work were on display and took roughly 30 minutes to walk round the exhibition. The reception displayed work from an Enfield artist David Gwinnit, who’s work photographing the LGBT community spans over 4 decades. There was a mindful workshop provided by NHS Enable and Sti testing provided by an east London charity Positive East.

Our partnership with Capel Manor gardens/ college has strengthened for our younger members, we have partnered with the college to provide our members with work experience for Christmas, Easter, a music festival and Halloween. 3 members of the network attend the college. We have seen 3 members of the youth group leave this year to go to university and one member off to drama college. New recruits have been lower than previous

years and I will be rearranging the group for the forth coming year to improve this. The youth group is changing it’s meeting day to a Wednesday from November 2025.

The young adults group has met 5 times to various amounts of success, there was a trip to central London and the consensus suggests, centre based meetings are preferred. The group on average has attendance of 5 people currently.

The Trans group has stopped meeting earlier this year due to family issues. The Lead continues to support members online or via phone calls. We will be starting this up again in 2026, when we have found a suitable person to lead the group.

The Women’s group has met for most of the year once a month but took a break over the summer. The group returned with a high number of members and has now increased the sessions to twice monthly.

I have represented the Network in a couple of away visits to other communities around the country with a mind to learn about new and possibly best practices. One of my roles in LocalMotion is to investigate forming community Land trust and place the Network directly in the middle of this development.

We have formed a partnership with AGEuk to create a weekly mature meeting group, this starts in November 2026 and will continue indefinitely. Shoul this be 2025?

Lancaster Centre:

Many groups have restarted their support groups within the centre. Office 2 is now established as the LGBT Networks base for meetings and admin. Quality Checkers have vacated earlier this year and the room remains vacant. Other groups are showing an interest in these rooms and there is a plan in place for 2026. This year has seen the centre busy with hires for conferences, meetings and training. The centre continues to meet its outcomes as set out in our Lottery grant and continues to remain in credit.

5) Financial Review

This is our Twentieth year as a charity. This year we have had our accounts examined by BBK Partnership. Three members of the Executive are signatories to the account and all cheques require two signatures and all payment request forms need two signatures. A financial statement is presented at each board meeting by the Treasurer. Additionally, the Treasure and Manager meet regularly to discuss finances.

Income

Funding has been received this year from:
London Borough of Enfield Third Sector Development Team - £25,000
London Borough of Enfield Public Health - £12,000
Lottery grants for Lancaster Centre - £26,478

Lancaster Centre income - £24,930
Other earned income - £2,781

Funding was received for the following:

Enfield Third Sector Development Team - Towards Network Manager’s salary.

Enfield Public Health – To facilitate support groups including HIV positive gay men’s, counselling services and provide LGBT strategic representation.

Lottery grant for Lancaster Centre – This is a 5-year grant supporting the reestablishment of the Lancaster Centre. There is a tapering off contribution towards the rent and some funding for the Centre Manager. An additional payment was received this year to assist us with the cost-of-living crisis. This meant a 10% uplift in salaries and support with the very high cost of Gas & Electricity. The payment was for the period till the end of the grant in 3.5 years. This Grant concludes December 2025.

Lancaster Centre income – This is income from office and room hire at the centre.

Costs of governance and volunteers

Most members of the organisation give of their valuable time voluntarily or as an additional part of their regular paid employment and take on the responsibilities of representing their organisation on the Network in addition to their existing work load, for which we are very grateful.

We do, however, offer travel costs for those volunteers not funded by the organisation they represent, to attend our meetings and events or, when representing the Network at other meetings.

Cost of generating funds

Funding applications and attending meetings with regard to funding is an integral part of the Network Manager’s position. The Network Manager does this with the assistance of other members of the Management Committee.

6) This Year

Our Manager, Mark Riley, is employed directly by the Network. Even with a Manager in post we are very dependent upon the hard work and input of our volunteer members who do much of the work.

Community Involvement

Our input on various service provision groups is in great demand. It is encouraging that increasing numbers of organisations are recognising the need to be more proactive about making their services appropriate for the LGBT community. However, this places great demands upon our member of staff and is an area of work we have had to think carefully about again this year. We have therefore had to decline requests to participate in groups due to lack of capacity.

Support Groups

We have continued with seven support groups and activities which are cofacilitated by different organisations:

Hate Crime and DV Reporting and Support Service – Metropolitan Police and London Borough of Enfield Community Safety Units
LGBT Tuesday Group – Independent members
Transgender Persons 1-2-1 Support and Group – Peta
Sexuality and Trans awareness training - Peta
Youth Group (Proud) – Mark
Counselling Service Clinical supervisors – Janet Jackson
Counselling Service Volunteers – Douglas Maitland-Jones, Joyce Filston, Joanne McAllister.
HIV Positive Gay Men’s Group – Tim
Young Adults Social Group - Mark

7) Next Year

There are seven main objectives for the coming year:

(i) To continue to provide the services already established.
(ii) To promote the work of the Network across the voluntary and statutory sectors in Enfield and to continue to raise issues relevant to the LGBT community with service providers.
(iii) To represent and give voice to the LGBT community of Enfield. (iv) To ensure that the Network remains financially viable and to develop additional funding streams for existing and/or new services.
(v) To participate in consultations and influence policy making in Enfield, Greater London and the UK.
(vi) To establish the Lancaster Centre as a financial sustainable entity.

8) Conclusion

The year ahead will hold many challenges as the work is developed and progressed. However, with the continued support of the Executive Committee, our many members and generous funders, we will be able to develop and enhance our services and thereby better support all LGBT people who live, work or study in the London Borough of Enfield.

9) Special thanks must go to:

All members of the Board of Directors, particularly our Chair, Vice Chair and Treasurer
~~Trevor Adams our outgoing Chair for his many years of service and support.~~
Jason for maintaining our website
Douglas, Joyce, Joanne and Phil our volunteer Counsellors
Janet our Counsellors Clinical Supervisor
Lisa our Complementary Therapist
The BBK Partnership for accounts examination and ongoing accounting support.

Submitted by Mark Riley, Network CEO.

Risk Assessment

The Enfield LGBT Network has carried out a full Risk Assessment on its activities.

The main areas of concern for most voluntary and community sector organisations are staff and accommodation. The Network has two members of staff and funding for these posts is an area that the board keep under review.

Where services are co-facilitated by member organisations, they are responsible for the appropriate training, support, police checking (where appropriate) and supervision of the staff and volunteers they provide.

We facilitate our support groups from our own centre and it provides us with a barrier free, safe and suitably maintained venue with appropriate public liability insurance.

During this year we had grants from different funders. Additional funding may still be needed from other sources to enable the network to continue. This is an area that the Manager, Chair and Management Committee are ever mindful of.
