A polling station venue for this year's local elections in Nottingham has had to be changed just days before voting due to building damage. Voters across the country will be heading to polling stations on Thursday (May 4) to elect local councillors.
This includes people in Nottingham, where people will be choosing the 55 members of Nottingham City Council for the next four years. People on the electoral register have already had information about the vote and their local polling station through the post.
But for people living in the Bulwell ward of Nottingham, where three councillors will be elected, one of their polling stations has had to be changed. Mariner Court, a Nottingham City Homes building on Irwin Drive, has suffered damage to the ceiling in its communal lounge.
