With local elections in Warwickshire over a week away Warwick District Council advise what you should do when visiting a polling station on Thursday 6 May.
People voting in person are encouraged to keep themselves and others safe by:
- Wearing a face covering.
- Bringing your own pen or pencil.
- Cleaning their hands when entering and leaving the polling station.
- Keeping a safe distance.
Voters should not attend the polling station if they have symptoms of Covid-19 or if they have been asked to self-isolate. Anyone who develops symptoms or is asked to self-isolate shortly before polling day has up to 5 pm on polling day to apply for an emergency proxy vote. This allows them to nominate someone they trust to vote on their behalf.
For further information on how to apply for an emergency proxy contact visit the Warwick District Council Elections website or contact our Elections team by email at Elections@Warwickdc.gov.uk or by phone on 01926 456105.
