Don’t forget to register to vote
With the Local Elections coming up on Thursday 3 May make sure you don’t forget to register to vote. Letters were sent to all households in Kensington and Chelsea last week giving advice and information on how to re-register at a new address as well as a map of the polling stations for each household.
Residents wanting to register to vote can visit www.gov.uk/register-to-vote or contact Electoral Services at 020 7361 3444 or email elect@rbkc.gov.uk. Residents who would like to cast their vote via post, please contact our Electoral Services team on the same phone number and email and they will send you all the necessary documents.
The deadline to register to vote is Tuesday 17 April 2018 and to apply for a postal vote is Wednesday 18 April 2018. If you want to appoint someone to vote at your polling station on your behalf, we must receive your application by Wednesday 25 April 2018.
If you have been affected by the Grenfell Tower tragedy and need to re-register at a new address, please contact your Key Worker who will be able to provide you with all the necessary information on how to re-register. If you are in temporary or new accommodation, you can also remain registered at your previous address which will allow you to vote in the ward you did previously.
For more details, please call 020 7361 3444, email elect@rbkc.gov.uk, visit https://goo.gl/KqkBwo or join our Electoral Services team at The Curve Community Centre, 10 Bard Road, North Kensington, London, W10 6TP every Wednesday from 10am to 5pm.
