Annual Electoral Canvass

We contact all residential properties in Lambeth from September as part of the Annual Electoral Canvass. Lambeth’s Electoral Registration Officer must undertake a canvass of all households in the borough each year to ensure that voter details are correct.

During the annual canvass, you can request for someone to be removed from the electoral register at your address online.

You will need the two-part security code printed on the form you have sent you.

Ask for someone to be removed from the electoral register

Do it by post

If you have been sent a form that is titled ‘canvass form’, you can make changes to this paper form and send it back to us in the pre-paid envelope provided.

What happens next

Once we receive your response, we will take the necessary steps to remove these names from the electoral register at your address.

In order to remove a name from the electoral register, we may need to send a review letter to the named person at the address where they are registered to vote.

If we do not receive a response to this review letter within the allowed period, their name will be removed from the electoral register when the register is next updated.
