"Over 3 million enrolled voters are being sent an enrolment update pack this week," says Murray Wicks, national manager, enrolment services.
"Being correctly enrolled is critical to being able to vote in the general election, so check your mailbox this week for your pack.
"This is your opportunity to check that your details are correct and up to date, or to make any changes. We ask that everyone open their pack to ensure their details are correct, and, if not, to fill in the form and send it back."
