New Ward Information

May 1st, 2026 by Simon Greaves

There will be local (district) elections on 7th May 2026 for new wards following a Local Government Boundary Commission review. The ward information published here on DataWorks is based on ward boundaries that predate these elections.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is due to publish 2026 ward boundary information in June/July 2026. After the ONS have done this, relevant information published on DataWorks will be updated so that it is based on the new ward boundaries.

This affects datasets and dashboards such as Anti-Poverty,, IMD and Ward Profiles.
