You will shortly receive a letter from Northumberland County Council asking you to confirm who is registered to vote at your address. Please take a few minutes to check and confirm - it's really easy to do either online, by phone or by post.

The form also gives you the opportunity to register for a postal vote. Postal voters can vote in advance without the need to visit a polling station but can still vote in person on the day if they want to.

We have County and Parish Council elections coming up in May.
