Every year, we check the details on the Electoral Register are correct, so everyone who is eligible to vote in elections can have their say. This is known as the Annual Canvass.
You will receive your form either by post or e-mail. Please check the details on your form when it arrives.
The form or e-mail will tell you what to do if you need to respond, as not all households will have to.
If you need to make a change, it is quick and easy to do online or by phone. All the details you need, including the security codes, are on page one of the form.
Any 16 or 17 year olds living in your home can be included on the form, even though they can't vote until they are 18.
From September, if we haven't heard from residents who need to provide a response, we will contact them by phone or visit them at home to get this vital information.
We will not ask you for any financial information and our representatives will have identification and they won't ask to come into your home. If in doubt, please call Customer Services on 01883 722000.
For more information, visit the annual canvass webpage.
Don't forget, completing your annual canvass does not register you on the electoral register. Anyone you add to the form must also register to vote at www.gov.uk-register-to-vote.
