Those people who know they are not registered can apply to join the register by visiting www.gov.uk/register-to-vote.
Residents are reminded that if they have recently added their name to a Household Enquiry Form, but not made an individual application including their National Insurance number and date of birth (either on the website or by paper form), that they need to do this in order to be included on the electoral register.
To double check if you are registered, call (020) 8871 6023.

Poll cards will be delivered to all eligible registered voters in May. These will provide information and a map showing which local polling station they should use. Voters will also be able to check the location of their polling station on the council’s website nearer the time.
Polling stations will be open from 7am to 10pm on polling day. For more local information, go to: How to vote.
