During the local government elections, you can vote at your home and term-time address providing they are not in the same local government area.

How to register

You can only vote if you're registered. You can do this in two ways:

• Rolling registration from January to September

• Annual canvass during October to December.

You can register at both your home address and your term-time address.

You can still join our Electoral Register so you can vote in future elections. Not sure what to do? We can help.

How to vote

How you vote is up to you - whatever you find most convenient.

Here are three easy ways you can vote, these are:

• in person at a polling station. 

• by post  

• by proxy (allowing someone to vote on your behalf).
