Parish Electoral Roll
The Parish Electoral Roll
If you are a supporter of the church, whether or not you attend regularly, please consider joining the church electoral roll.
While all residents of the parish can vote for churchwardens, the other positions are elected by people on the church electoral roll (this is not the same as the North and South Kesteven rolls).
An Application for Enrolment on the Church Electoral Roll can be downloaded by clicking on the pdf at the bottom of this page. A form can also be found in your church or you can ask our Parish Administrator, Alison Scott, or a churchwarden for a form.
Return completed forms to your churchwarden or send to the Parish Electoral Roll Officer, c/o The Rectory, 16 West Street, Folkingham, NG34 0SW.
The church Electoral Roll is updated every year before the Annual Parochial Church Meeting. A revision of the Roll is done every year unless a new church Electoral Roll is required. A new church Electoral Roll is only needed every 6 years. For more details on Preparation of a new Electoral Roll or on the Revision of the Electoral Roll please see below.
Preparation of a New Church Electoral Roll
Every six years, every parish is required by law to prepare a new Electoral Roll, and this was last done in 2019 and is due again this year 2025.
Inclusion in a new Electoral Roll is not automatic - the new roll is created from scratch. Everyone must apply to be included on a new Electoral Roll and needs to complete an Application for Enrolment form.
The deadline for receipt of all 2025 applications is 10th April 2025, after which the new Electoral Roll will be prepared.
Revision of the Church Electoral Roll
The church electoral roll is revised annually (except every sixth year when a new roll is prepared) and only requires people who have recently moved into the parish, joined the church, or reached the age of 16, to fill in an application form.
Return completed application forms to your churchwarden or send to the Parish Electoral Roll Officer, c/o The Rectory, 16 West Street, Folkingham, NG34 0SW.
2025 New Church Electoral Roll details:-
The Notice of preparation of a New Church Electoral Roll will be displayed from 5th March 2025 at all our churches.
