Annual electoral canvass to begin

Published: 29/06/2020

COPELAND residents are being urged to ensure their voter registration details are up to date.

The council is beginning its annual canvass this week, in which every household will be contacted to ensure the details held are correct and eligible residents are included on the register in order to vote in upcoming elections.

Council provides £20m support for businesses

Published: 26/06/2020

COPELAND Council has now awarded more than £21.2million to businesses affected by the Coroanvirus pandemic.

The latest figures have been released after a further £702,500 was awarded to 115 businesses in the past week, through the council's Small Business Discretionary Grant Scheme, which closed on June 15. These cash grants were provided to business who were not eligible for other Government support schemes.

By law, we have to carry out an annual ‘canvass’ of electors every year, to ensure the electoral register is as complete and accurate as possible. The canvass runs from July to November and the revised electoral register, incorporating the changes made during the canvass, will be published on December 1, 2022. You need to be on the electoral register to vote in elections. Being registered can also improve your credit rating.
