Merton Moves

A free 6-week pledge for over 60s with a physical health condition to stay active and healthy

Merton Moves is here to help you adopt a more physically active lifestyle. Regular physical activity is key to healthy ageing, and it's never too late to start!

Even just one hour of exercise a week can help you to gain strength, improve balance, stay independent, and improve your social wellbeing.

If you'd like support with getting active and you're a Merton resident aged 60+, click below to take the pledge.

Further down the page, we've also listed some simple exercises you can do at home, healthy eating tips and other resources to help you take care of your physical health.
