Following the close of nominations for Executive Committee (EC) and Regional Committees (RC) for 2026-27, EC ballots will take place in the following regions: London, East & South East England and Wales & South West England. An RC ballot will take place in Scotland and Northern Ireland.

All candidates in those regions have been informed by email that a ballot is taking place, and candidates in other regions where a ballot is not required have also been informed.

Make your vote count

Ballots open on Monday 13 October 2025, with ballot packs landing on doorsteps on Tuesday 14 / Wednesday 15 October 2025, depending on local post deliveries.
