We Are Merton Big Conversation
We Are Merton at 60 is a unique opportunity for you, the residents of Merton, to tell us what you think of the borough and what we can do to make it even better.
This Spring and Summer, we’re launching our ‘We Are Merton Big Conversation’ at all Merton at 60 events – so you can let us know what matters to you, and your hopes for Merton’s future.
We’ll also be capturing reflections and personal stories for a series of short films that we’ll share at the end of the celebration month.
Come along with reflections on our past, imaginative ideas and contribute to shaping Merton’s future.

Schools
Every child learning in a Merton school is invited to take part in an art competition, with the chance to be showcased alongside insightful heritage displays and craft workshops.
Primary schools will also host their own mini parties on a designated Merton Mufti Day, where students will wear their boroughs colours – purple and green – with pride.
