A Community Organising Alliance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Merton Citizens is an alliance of organisations – churches, mosques, schools, and hospitals – working together to make a difference in our Borough.<\/p>\n

Merton Citizens builds the capacity of people to participate in public life, to act together for the common good, to win change, and to strengthen civic institutions in the process.<\/p>\n

At present Trinity is one of 18 institutions planning work around various areas –\u00a0Mental Health, Refugee Welcome and Housing.<\/p>\n

The Founding Assembly took place in 2018.\u00a0 We are excited to be in on the start of this inspiring project, which is part of a nationwide Citizens movement that has been organising communities for several years.<\/p>\n
