A by-election has been called following the resignation of councillor for Porchester, Michelle Welsh.
Cllr Welsh had served the ward since winning election in 2023. She is now Labour’s MP for Sherwood Forest.
A by-election will now be held on Thursday, May 1.
This election will be combined with the elections of councillors to Nottinghamshire County Council on the same day.
The by-election only affects registered electors in the Porchester, with no other elections for Gedling Borough Councillors taking place on that day.
The deadline for new voter registration applications is midnight on Friday, April 11, 2025 and the deadline to apply for a postal vote is 5pm on Monday, April 14 2025. Recent home movers should check that they have updated the electoral register and will be eligible to vote.
