BASILDON Council is asking voters to check their polling cards for their correct local polling station ahead of the local elections on Thursday.

New arrangements in the Queen's Park area, of Billericay West ward, mean the Community Church, in Queen's Park Avenue, will be a polling station.

In Burstead ward, the polling station which used to be in the Scout hut next to the fire station, in Laindon Road, will move to Archer Emmanuel Church hall across the street.

Voters in Pitsea North West ward, in the area around St Peters Church, will vote at the new community hall, next to the church in Nevendon.

Those who voted in the former Riverview Centre, at Vange, will now vote at nearby St Chad's Church.
