Don’t lose your vote ❎
It’s that time of year for the annual Canvass, and if you live within the district, you may have noticed it is already underway.
The Canvass is a statutory exercise we must undertake each year, to ensure everyone is registered to vote at the correct address. This keeps the electoral register up to date and accurate.
Registering to vote is a legal requirement, even if there is no intention from an individual to vote in any election.
The first set of forms were posted out on the 19th of August.
Certain properties have three weeks to respond. If we don’t receive a response by this time, they will be sent a reminder form. They will then have another three weeks to respond. If they still don’t, we must make personal contact, via telephone call.
To make sure you don’t lose your vote and say on decisions that affect you please make sure to update your electoral registration details.

Street Scene update
All district councillors have had the chance to request environmental enhancements for their wards, which are in addition to the regular grounds maintenance schedule.
