If you aren’t registered to vote or you don’t have voter ID the Knowle West Alliance network want to offer you access to apply.
We are offering opportunities in the week to apply online and print off ID.
We believe that it is important for people to have their voice heard and want to break down any barriers for people to exercise their right to vote. We are not advocating for any political party rather we are advocating for the community.
People can register to vote online, by June 18th, on Register to vote
If they need voter ID they can do this the government website: Apply for photo ID https://www.gov.uk/apply-for-photo-id-voter-authority-certificater (called a ‘Voter Authority Certificate’)
You only need to apply for a Voter Authority Certificate if:
- you do not have accepted photo ID
- you no longer look like the photo on your ID
- the name on your photo ID is different to your name on the electoral register
Apply for photo ID to vote
It’s free to apply. You’ll need:
- a recent, digital photo of yourself
- your National Insurance number
You can still apply if you do not have a National Insurance number. You’ll need to provide other documents to prove your identity, for example a birth certificate, bank statement and utility bill.
