TODAY at 5pm is the deadline to apply for free voter ID for next week’s general election.

If you're voting at a polling station you'll need to take along photo ID.

Accepted forms of ID include a passport, national identity card, full or provisional driving licence, blue badge, older person's bus pass or disabled person's bus pass.

You'll still be able to use an expired ID as long as you're recognisable in the photo.

If you don’t have any ID you can apply for free voter ID online at electoralcommission.org.uk/VoterID by 5pm today (June 26).

You can also apply for free voter ID by completing a paper form and sending this to the Electoral Services team.

You can find out more about voting and elections at barnsley.gov.uk/elections.
