Local council elections in all 32 London boroughs will be held on 7 May. In Redbridge, 63 members of the council will be selected, contested across 22 wards.
The South Woodford Village Gazette presents statements from the candidates standing in the two wards covered by this publication. South Woodford ward has 14 nominated candidates, while Churchfields ward has 15 candidates. Both wards were created ahead of the 2018 elections following a boundary review and are each represented by three councillors.
Polling stations open at 7am on 7 May and close at 10pm. Voters will need to show photo ID (passport, photocard driving licence and a range of travel passes are accepted) at the polling stations and can cast as many votes as there are councillors to be elected in their ward. The results will be announced the following day.
