Congratulations to our Mayor, @martinwhelton.bsky.social, on a brilliant and successful Mayoral Ball.
And all in support of some fantastic local causes, with over £8,000 raised for Commonside Trust, Wimbledon and Morden Guild to continue doing such important work for our residents across #Merton.
THOMAS MERTON — “Break the Spell”
⚡ Break the Spell. Cut the loop of illusions. #mysticism slices veils, #spiritual focus sharpens, #mindfulness steadies, #metaphysical truth pushes forward. Silence is your weapon.

We are serious about tackling violence against women and girls here, and that means starting early.
I want every child in #Merton to grow up safe, supported, and empowered in every space. This strategy is a step towards that future where no young person lives in fear because of their gender 💜

Hands down, best part of being Cabinet Member for Children’s Services is seeing our children enjoying our free holiday activities.
I grew up on free school meals so I’m very proud #Merton offers these fun activities for our children in every school holiday 💜

Hina with Mariam selfie in West Barnes “Just two Muslim LibDem women campaigning in Ramadan. At sunset we are cooking Iftars and praying with our families after a day of fasting … yes no food or WATER all day!”
To all the amazing Muslim women standing in the local elections, who are observing this holy month of #Ramadan - thank you!
We need more women to stand from all sections of society. I’m proud to be standing with Mariam in #WestBarnes #Merton

Visited one of our homes for young people who’ve been in our care and left feeling very proud. It was warm, safe, and the kind of home you’d want for your own family.
It’s one of my proudest things in #Merton: providing these high quality homes that build confidence & independence in our children.

Proud of this one 💜
In #Merton we are keeping free holiday clubs running, including half term so local kids can eat well, try new things and just enjoy being kids. I grew up on free school meals, so I know how much this matters.
