The chance for residents to vote for the person they want as their ward councillor in Harrow is fast approaching.

Local elections polling day for the London Borough of Harrow will place on Thursday May 3, with 63 council seats up for grabs.

There are more than 150 candidates vying for your vote across Harrow's 21 wards - each of which will be represented by three councillors.

Residents can cast their votes at polling stations from 7am to 10pm on May 3.

For those unable to make it in person, you must register for a proxy vote (when someone votes on your behalf) or a postal vote (cast by post) by 5pm on Wednesday April 25.

Voting is vitally important - as councillors make decisions on issues including education, housing, transport, social care and waste that affect the lives of local people.

That's why we've rounded up a full list of the candidates - and parties - standing in every ward in Harrow ahead of polling day.
