Kensington and Chelsea Youth Participation

Voting and campaigning

If you are aged between 11 and 19 years old on 1 September 2022 and live or study in the borough, you can vote. Find out if you how you can vote and how to choose your winner.

How to Vote 

For those attending most schools and colleges in Kensington and Chelsea, your one chance to vote will take place between the 16 and 19 January at your place of study.

If you live in Kensington and Chelsea but go to a school or college where you cannot vote, or if you study in another borough, you will be able to vote by post.

You will need to return your registration form by 16 December, and you will need to send us your vote by 18 January.

How do I decide who to vote for?

All the candidates will write an election manifesto and film a video manifesto. You can read the manifestos and watch the videos on the Council website. Copies of the manifestos and videos will also be sent to schools, colleges, and Youth Clubs.
