Getting added to the Register of Electors

A system of rolling registration is in operation which allows regular updates to be made. Individual application forms are available to register throughout the year.

You can register online at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote or by calling 01786 892289. You can also request a form either by emailing [email protected] or calling 01786 892289.

 

When the form or your online application is received you will be added to our list of new applications. Other electors may object to your name being added to the Register. Should this occur we will write to you with an explanation. If there are no objections we will amend your details within 2-6 weeks of receipt and send written confirmation.

We will inform the Electoral Registration Officer for your old address that you have moved. Your name can then be removed from that Register.
