Following the announcement that a COVID Garden of Reflection is to be unveiled on St Helier open space in spring 2022, we are inviting residents to share poems about their experience over the last twelve months. Selected poems will be featured in the garden for everyone to read. 

There are two categories, Under 18s and 18+ (Adults) and we are asking residents to submit a poem on any of the following themes:

  • The NHS
  • Loss of a loved one
  • A special place to reflect
  • Key words: caring, thanking, giving, sharing, loving, remembering

The closing date is 30 April 2021 and there should only be one entry per person. Please email entries to: dawn.fielding@sutton.gov.uk, including:

  • Your name
  • Name of the poem 
  • Age if under 18
  • Contact number
