Enfield is a large and ethnically diverse borough on the outskirts of north London. It has an annual youth opportunity fund allocation of £195,800 and £169,300 for its youth capital fund. All the money is distributed through a panel known as Youth Opportunity Fund Enfield (YOFE).
Who is on the panel? "Initially there was a small panel of about six people," explains Pink Ross, co-ordinator for YOFE.
