Important update on electoral registration
Posted on: Monday, October 6, 2025Each year we send annual registration forms to every household in the district so that we know who is eligible to vote. These were sent in August and it’s important everyone responds.
After following up, where we still haven’t heard from households, we are required to door-knock to gather this data. Please note that our officers are currently doing this across the district. They will all have ID badges to confirm they work at Newark and Sherwood District Council.
They will ask you to confirm if the list of people on our form are still living at the property or they will ask for full names and nationality details of any new residents. This information is then put into our electoral database and an invitation to any new individuals eligible to vote will be sent.
We would like to thank you in your support in allowing us to complete this exercise. Please remain vigilant and always check the ID of our staff.
Any questions at all, you can find out more on our website at Register of Electors annual canvass or call us on 01636 650000.
