  • Mobile Number/Email(either of the two)

3. Provide Your Electoral Mapping

Select your location from the drop-down menus to assign your membership to the correct administrative unit:

  • County

  • Ward

4. Select Special Interest Group (Optional)

If applicable, indicate if you belong to a Special Interest Group (Youth, Woman, or Person with Disability) to help the party meet its constitutional inclusivity quotas.
