Postal and proxy voting
If you cannot get to a polling station you can apply for a postal vote or a proxy vote, which is when you nominate someone else to vote on your behalf. Please be aware there are set cut-off dates for each election, by which time applications for postal and proxy voting must be received.
A form to apply for a postal or proxy vote can be downloaded from the right of this page or from the about my vote website.
