  • Apply for a Postal Vote

    Apply for a Postal Vote

    Labour volunteer teams have been out across the ward extensively over the last few week listening to residents. A number of residents have asked about applying for postal votes for the elections in May.

    Voting by post is the safest and easiest way to make sure your vote counts. The quickest and easiest way setup postal voting is by applying online via the Government’s website here.

    You can also download, print out and fill in a paper postal vote application form. This should then be sent to your local Electoral Registration Office.

    Electoral Registration Officer, Ground Floor North, Town Hall, Barking, 1 Town Square, IG11 7LU

    Your Labour Community Team can help with lots of things, but unfortunately we can’t help you complete or return these forms. Do ask a friend or neighbour if you need help.
