General Information
Voter ID
The UK Government introduced a requirement in 2023 for voters to show photo ID when voting at a polling station at all elections in England - this new requirement will apply again in England at the elections taking place on Thursday 2 May 2024.
At these elections you will need to bring acceptable photo ID to be able to vote at a polling station. Those voting by postal vote do not need to provide ID as separate security measures are already in place for voting by post.
You can find out more about these requirements by clicking here.
