Important Dates for General Election 2024
There are a few really important deadlines you need to be aware of in this General Election.
18th June – This is the last date you can register to vote.
Did you know that about one-third of young people eligible to vote have NOT registered? This is about the twice the amount for the population as a whole (14%).
You can register online in as little as 5 minutes at Register to vote – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). Even if you think you might not want to vote, at least you can keep your options open.
