Welcome to Enfield Liberal Democrats

We are the local branch of the Liberal Democrats, acting on your behalf to make Enfield a better place to live. We believe in a fair, free and open society that encourages an equal community with everybody benefiting from the work of the local Council, Greater London Authority, London Mayor, Westminster and the European Union.

We work in the Borough meeting residents to canvass their views and challenging the Council to reflect the views of all its residents in all of its decisions. We also get involved, helping residents solve problems for themselves.

If you are interested in helping the LibDems locally - delivering leaflets, reporting problems to us or even joining the party - then get in touch.
