As the results come in, lots of us will be wondering what changes in the leadership of local councils might mean for our communities.

At One Million Women & Girls we want to thank all the candidates who participated in our debates and who signed up to our One Million Women & Girls pledge.

We look forward to continuing our mission to ensure women and girls are able to fully engage in the democratic process, have their voices heard and their needs met by local councils and other agencies that make decisions that shape women and girls’ lives every day.

Candidates are the people standing for election to your local council. They want to be elected so they can make decisions about local services and policies - things like housing, transport, schools, parks, health services, and support for families.

You can find out who your local candidates are for the elections on 7th May here:
https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/your-election-information

You can find our more about each candidate here:
www.whocanivotefor.co.uk

When you vote, you choose who will make decisions that affect your daily life - and the lives of women and girls in your community.

Your vote, and your voice, matters! Ask your candidates if they've signed the One Million Women & Girls Pledge - and what they will do to improve the lives of women and girls in your community.

Can’t make it to the polls? You still have a voice 🗳️

A proxy vote lets someone you trust vote on your behalf if you’re unable to be there in person.

Whether you’re working, unwell, or away, this is how you make sure your vote still counts.

Apply by 5pm tomorrow to secure your proxy vote.
