Households across Falkirk will start to receive their poll letters this week for the Scottish Parliamentary election on May 7.

The poll letters provide voters with details of their polling station and voting arrangements. While voters do not need to bring their poll letter to vote, it can help staff locate them more quickly on the electoral register.

Voters who have moved recently or are not sure if they are registered at their current address should visit the Electoral Registration Officers website for information.

There are nine changes to polling places across the Falkirk Council area for this election.

People who last voted in Bowhouse Community Centre, Grangemouth, will now vote in Bowhouse Primary School, Grangemouth, while Hallglen Primary School gives way to Ettrick Dochart Community Centre and Camelon Education Centre is replaced by the Forth Valley Sensory Centre.

Instead of the polling station being at The Dawson Centre it will now be in Langlees Primary School, with Tryst Centre giving way to Larbert Primary School, Laurieston Primary School to Laurieston Community Hall, Bantaskine Primary School to mobile units in Bantaskine Road car park, Slamannan Community Centre to Slamannan Primary School and the polling station at Stenhouse and Carron Parish Church now switches to Stenhousemuir Bowling Club.

The Electoral Commission will be delivering booklets to every household in Scotland from March 23.

Falkirk Council chief executive Kenneth Lawrie said: “I would encourage everyone to make sure they are aware of where they can go to cast their vote, particularly in areas where there has been a change to Polling Places.”
