By Election set for 18th July 2019

A by-election for a seat on Daventry District Council will be held in July following the resignation of Councillor Fabienne Fraser-Allen.

The by-election for Brixworth Ward will take place on Thursday, 18 July after three candidates were nominated to contest the seat.

Residents in the ward who are not already registered to vote have until 2 July to do so if they wish to have their say in this by-election. People can register online at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
