Parish Electoral Roll

The Parish Electoral Roll

If you are a supporter of the church, whether or not you attend regularly, please consider joining the church electoral roll. 

 

While all residents of the parish can vote for churchwardens, the other positions are elected by people on the church electoral roll (this is not the same as the North and South Kesteven rolls). 

An Application for Enrolment on the Church Electoral Roll can be downloaded by clicking on the pdf at the bottom of this page.  A form can also be found in your church or you can ask our Parish Administrator, Alison Scott, or a churchwarden for a form. 

Return completed forms to your churchwarden or send to the Parish Electoral Roll Officer, c/o Hus House, Village Street, Pickworth, NG34 0TD. 

The Electoral Roll is updated every year before the Annual Parochial Church Meeting.  A revision of the Electoral Roll is done every year unless a new Electoral Roll is required.  A new Electoral Roll is only needed every 6 years.  For more details on Preparation of a new Electoral Roll or on the Revision of the Electoral Roll please see below.

Preparation of a New Electoral Roll

Every six years, every parish is required by law to prepare a new Electoral Roll, and this was last done in 2019 and won't be necessary again until 2025.

Inclusion in a new Electoral Roll is not automatic - the new roll is created from scratch.  Everyone must apply to be included on a new Electoral Roll and needs to complete an Application for Enrolment form.  

The deadline for receipt of all 2019 applications was 1 April 2019, after which the new Electoral Roll was prepared.  

This year and every year until 2025 there will be a Revision of the Electoral Roll.

Revision of the Electoral Roll

The church electoral roll is revised annually and only requires people who have recently moved into the parish, joined the church, or reached the age of 16, to fill in an application form.

Return completed application forms to your churchwarden or send to the Parish Electoral Roll Officer, c/o Hus House, Village Street, Pickworth, NG34 0TD.
