This week residents who have registered for postal votes will be receiving their ballot papers for the elections on May 6th. Registered voters not voting by post will continue to vote in person at your nominated polling station. If you forget to post your vote, you can still deliver it to an officer at a local polling station to ensure it’s counted. COVID-19 safety measures will be in place, and you can find more information about this on The Electoral Commission website.
To find out where your nearest polling station is, visit https://wheredoivote.co.uk and enter your postcode.
