A change in registering to vote

In a change to the electoral registration system people will now be responsible for registering themselves to vote.

Previously the head of the household was responsible for registering family members to vote.

People in Reigate should have received a letter by now informing them of what the council calls a more secure form of individual electoral registration.

While many Reigate residents who are already registered will automatically move onto the new electoral register around 9,000 people will need to take action to remain on it.

People who are still not registered to vote will also have to register but this can all now be done online at www.gov.uk/yourvotematters.
