Babergh District Council is urging residents not to wait until a date for a General Election has been announced before they secure their right to vote.
The Council sent a registration form to every property in the Babergh area last autumn but if you are not sure you returned it, or if you have moved house since then and have not registered with your new details, you need to register now.
“The time between the election date being announced and the last chance to register to vote can be a matter of a few days,” warns Senior Democratic Services Manager, Ray Amesbury. “If you are not on the electoral register, you won’t be able to vote.”
Registering to vote only takes a few minutes. You can print off a form from http://www.aboutmyvote.co.uk/, the website of the independent elections watchdog, the Electoral Commission, or telephone Babergh’s Democratic Services on (01473) 825713. ENDS
