Democracy Club is a non-partisan Community Interest Company, founded in 2015. We work with the Electoral Commission, local government, and hundreds of volunteers to collect and publish information relating to UK democracy: elections, polling stations, candidates, and a wide range of related information.
Democracy Club believes that basic information about elections - relevant to the individual user - should be easily available online. To this end we maintain the necessary infrastructure (lists of elections, electoral geographies, etc) and run two voter information tools:
-
WhoCanIVoteFor.co.uk offers candidate lists for all UK elections, via a simple postcode search. It also publishes election results. Outside of major elections, the front page of the website lists all upcoming by-elections.
-
WhereDoIVote.co.uk gives polling station addresses for any UK postcode. This data is collected directly from local government, and is usually only available in the weeks before a scheduled election.
Everything we do is available as open data downloads or via an API.
