You are entitled to register as an elector by means of a Declaration of Local Connection if you fall within one of the following categories:-

• You are currently resident as a patient in a mental hospital and would not be entitled to be registered by virtue of residence at any other place
• You are currently resident at a place where you are remanded in custody, otherwise than after being convicted of any offence, and would not be entitled to be registered by virtue of residence at any other place

If you would like to apply to register in this way, please contact our Electoral Services team and ask for a “Declaration of Local Connection” application form. This type of application must be renewed annually.
