Special Voting Packs
Special Voting Packs
What is a special vote?
A special vote is used when voting papers haven’t arrived or have been damaged (by rain, snails, etc.). Voters fill out a form, sign a declaration, and then cast their vote.
Do I need ID to cast a special vote?
If the voter is signing the declaration in front of an electoral official on the day, valid ID is required.
If someone else (e.g. a partner or flatmate) is signing the declaration, ID is not required.

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
