*General Election*
Photo ID reminder
Remember you will need acceptable photo ID to be able to vote in person at polling stations in the General Election on Thursday 4 July.
Accepted forms of ID include a UK, European Economic Area (EEA) or Commonwealth passport; a UK, EEA or Commonwealth driving licence; and some concessionary travel passes, such as an older person’s bus pass. You will be able to use expired ID if you are still recognisable from the photo.
If you have lost your ID, or your Voter Authority Certificate does not arrive in time for election day, you can appoint an emergency proxy to vote on your behalf up until 5pm on election day. The person appointed as proxy, voting on your behalf, must have their own acceptable photo ID.
For more information about voting in the General Election, visit the Electoral Commission website [
].

Could you foster?
Foster child with carer
We urgently need more foster carers across the borough.
Foster carers offer children and young people a safe, loving and nurturing home when they can't live with their birth families.
Take three minutes to watch this powerful short film [
] from Foster4 - a collaboration between eight local authorities in Cheshire and Merseyside. The film looks at three very different people who all show some of the attributes needed to be a foster carer as they go about their daily lives.
Could you foster?
