Easy Read - Voting information for 4th May

03rd May 2023

Support people to vote in 2023 local elections

Local elections will take place in many areas on Thursday 4th May. Voters in England will now need to show voter ID at polling stations before they can vote. This requirement will apply to local elections, police and crime commissioner elections, UK parliamentary by-elections, recall petitions and the general election in October.

The Electoral Commission have created resources for charities and organisations working with those who are likely to need support with the new voter ID requirement.
