Think about the best voting option for you
Polling stations will be safe places to vote in May, but there are other ways to vote.
If you'd rather not go to a polling station, or you won't be able to get to one on the day, you can apply for a postal or proxy vote.
Apply early to vote by post
If you want to vote by post, apply early so your postal vote can be sent to you more quickly.
You must apply for a postal vote by 20 April at the latest.
Vote by proxy
You can also ask someone you trust to vote on your behalf. This is known as a proxy vote.
You should apply for a proxy vote by 27 April.
