Your chance to shape the City's future
Upcoming Aldermanic Elections
Two Aldermanic elections will take place in the Wards of Bridge and Cordwainer on 9/10 September 2026. These elections have been called following the resignations of the current Aldermen, both of whom intend to re-stand as Alderman for their ward.
A chance to change the face of the City
The City of London is the oldest continuously-running local democracy in the world. The Square Mile is run by 100 Common Councillors and 25 Aldermen, elected by workers and residents across the City. Voter registration occurs annually, starting in August and concluding on 30 November.
