You can navigate to the candidates pages at any time via the village website – go to Election 2021: Candidates for Keevil Parish Council, or use the drop-down menu under Parish Matters along the top links, or just click on the Parish Matters pic/link under the home page banner.
Postal vote packs are currently being sent out to people who have applied to vote by post. Wiltshire Council suggest that you post these back as soon as possible when you have received them, rather than wait until polling day and attending the polling station to hand them in.
