There's less than a week left to register to vote in the upcoming General Election.
Voter registration will close at midnight on Tuesday June 18 with the election itself set to take place on July 4.
You can register to vote if you're aged 16 or over and you’re a British or an Irish citizen.
You can also register to vote if you have permission to enter or stay in the UK and are a Commonwealth citizen, citizen of Denmark, Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal or Spain, or citizen of another EU country, with permission to enter or stay since 31 December 2020, and this has continued without a break.
If you don’t have an accepted form of photo ID, you can apply for a free ID document.
The deadline to apply for the Voter Authority Certificate is six working days before the date of the election.
You can register to vote on the Government website: gov.uk.
