  • 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.

    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.

  • Voices of Power, Stories of Pride

    Chadwell Heath Labour Councillor Sade Bright will be hosting an event at Barking Town Hall on Monday 27th October as part of the Borough’s celebration of Black History Month. All are welcome. Join us for an evening of celebration, leadership and pride.

  • Black History Month

    This week marks the start of October and of Black History Month.

    Black History Month celebrates the culture, history and achievements that Black African and Caribbean people have brought to the United Kingdom

    Labour Councillor for Chadwell Heath, Sade Bright, this week expressed the importance of the month to the Borough:

    “Black History Month is a time to reflect, to learn, and to celebrate. It’s about recognising the incredible contributions of Black communities, not just nationally, but right here in Barking and Dagenham. This year’s theme, ‘Standing Firm in Power and Pride’, speaks to the strength and beauty of Black heritage. I’m proud that our programme offers something for everyone, and I encourage all residents to take part, be inspired, and help us honour the legacy and future of Black excellence.”
