Annual Community Report
KITE's Annual Meeting in November is a special day, as it marks the release of our annual Community Report Video! Not only is this presentation a way to showcase the amazing work we do in Enfield, but it also serves as a way for the community to share in the celebration of successes achieved throughout the year. As members of the community narrate the stories, the impact of KITE is felt across the greater Enfield area.
