Voters are getting their pens out, ready to put crosses in the right boxes for the 2024 council elections.
But if you’re wondering who’s running in your patch, look no further.
This is the full list of every candidate who has officially nominated for each council.
And, as the results are released, we’ll mark the candidates who are set to become councillors for the next four years in italics.
If someone has (retired) next to their name, it means they’ve been pulled from the race after nominations closed so will likely still appear on ballot papers but be ineligible to be elected.
