Can I vote by proxy?

You can apply for a proxy to vote on your behalf for a future election at any time. You need to bear in mind that there are certain criteria you must be able to meet to be able to apply successfully.

Please click here for application forms for Proxy and Postal Proxy Votes.

If you require a Postal Proxy, please do not to leave things to the last minute, Statutory Regulations state when votes may be posted out and give a strict timescale when votes can be accepted back. Allow plenty of time for the ballot paper to be delivered to you and for you to return it by post.

Please apply as early as possible and make sure to include your telephone number so we can contact you if there are any problems.
