Facebook Campaign enables us to measure response and retarget from campaigns we run on Facebook and Instagram

Annual canvass

Every year, we are required by law to contact your household to find out if there have been any changes to who is eligible to be registered to vote at your address. We will be contacting your household again this year.

Your household will receive either:

  • A confirmation letter addressed to 'The Present Occupiers' by post. You will be asked to check the names of people living at your address. You only have to respond if you need to make a change or update the information printed on the letter.
  • A canvass form addressed to the 'The Present Occupiers' by post. This form will ask you to confirm who is currently eligible to vote in your household. By law, you must respond to this form and provide the information requested.
  • A confirmation letter by email (sent from enfield@householdresponse.com). If you have previously provided an email address to Electoral Services, we will send the confirmation to your inbox. You must respond to this email to prevent further communication being sent.

You should note that there is a criminal penalty of a maximum of £1,000 for failing to provide the information required, when requested to do so by the Electoral Registration Officer. The penalty for providing false information to an Electoral Registration Officer is imprisonment of up to 51 weeks, or (on summary conviction) an unlimited fine.

If you have any questions regarding the communication(s) you receive from us, email elections@enfield.gov.uk.

To confirm or update the details for your household:

  • Visit householdresponse.com/enfield. On the login page, enter both parts of the security code that is on the letter, canvass form or email you have received.

If you have no changes to make, you can either:

  • Text NOCHANGE followed by Part 1 and Part 2 of your security code to 80212 (standard charges apply)
  • Call 0800 197 9871

If you have any questions about how to respond to the letter, form or email you have received, email elections@enfield.gov.uk.

Each new resident, or when a child turns 18, at your address whose details were provided to us in response to the letter, canvass form or email your household received, must complete an application to be registered to vote at your address. Each new resident can apply now at GOV.UK/register-to-vote.

Any new resident at your address who does not register as soon as possible will receive a letter or email from us to formally invite them to register to vote at your address.

You should note that it is a legal requirement to register to vote when invited to by the Electoral Registration Officer. A person failing to register without providing an adequate reason may be fined £80.

If you have any questions regarding registering to vote, email elections@enfield.gov.uk.
