Church Electoral Roll 2026: a time to add new worshippers
Applications to be added to this year's Electoral Roll are welcome from Sunday 8 February, until Thursday 8 March, ahead of the Annual Parochial Church Meeting on Sunday 22 March, at midday in the Parish Hall.
Last year we revise the Electoral Roll in its entirety, so this year it is only those who, since March 2025, have either started to attend this church regularly, moved to the parish, or have reached the age of 16, who are asked to fill in an application form. Everyone else's details will be held from last year.

A full list (names only) of the existing Roll will be available at the back of church by Sunday 8 February, along with paper copies of the Application for Enrolment forms. The form will also be printed on the back of Sunday's Service Sheets until the Roll closes on Thursday 8 March.
Churches are required to create and maintain a list of members, known as the Electoral Roll. Entry on the Roll allows members to vote in the Annual Church Meetings, become members of the Parochial Church Council and means that you are formally recognised as a stakeholder in the parish as a whole. For the parish, it the only way that we can measure our membership and has a direct impact on the scale of our representation on local or diocesan councils. During times of clergy vacancy, the viability of parishes is also measured by the Electoral Roll among other factors.
For members with children who are approaching applications for school admissions, the Electoral Roll will be the mechanism by which we will qualify your association with the parish. School Supplementary Forms will only be signed, therefore, for one or more parent listed on the Electoral Roll.
