UK local elections are taking place in a matter of days, in which Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will face his biggest electoral test since Labour won a landslide victory last July’.

On May 1, 2025, millions of people will head to their polling stations to vote for 1,631 council seats, 23 county, unitary and metropolitan councils plus six mayors.

Voting in the 2025 local elections will cover local government elections, parish council elections, local authority mayoral elections, combined authority mayoral elections and combined county authority mayoral elections.

Not every UK resident will have a local election to attend, however. Elections will take place across 14 county councils: Cambridgeshire, Derbyshire, Devon, Gloucestershire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Lancashire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire.

The remaining are unitary authorities of: Buckinghamshire, Cornwall, Durham, North Northamptonshire, Northumberland, Shropshire, West Northamptonshire and Wiltshire, plus Doncaster Metropolitan Council.

On top of the council seats, there are six mayoral elections including four combined authority mayors in Greater Lincolnshire, Hull and East Yorkshire, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, West of England, plus two Metropolitan Borough Mayors in Doncaster and North Tyneside.

Plus, voters living in the constituency of Runcorn and Helsby, in Cheshire, will choose a new MP after former MP Mike Amesbury stood down after being given a prison sentence for assaulting a constituent.
