Notice of Election and important information

Important information for all residents

As part of new laws introduced by Government, everyone voting in person at a polling station at this year’s local elections on 4 May will need to show a valid form of ID to be able to vote.

Find out more on the Cotswold District Council website including what ID is accepted and how to apply for free ID if you don’t have one of the accepted forms of ID –

www.cotswold.gov.uk/voterid

Everyone who needs to apply for ID has until 25 April to do so. Also remember to register to vote by 17 April if you aren’t already registered. The ID requirements will not affect postal votes so if you want to vote by post you can also find out how to do that on the district council website.
