In any election, your vote is yours and yours alone. 

 

On Thursday 1 May 2025 there will be elections held within North East Lincolnshire for the first Mayor of the Greater Lincolnshire Combined County Authority, who will oversee investment in key areas across our region. 

 

However, make sure the vote you cast is your choice.  

 

Voter fraud can take many different forms including: 

 

 

 

 

 

If you are a victim of voter fraud or know someone who is, call the Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111 or visit crimestoppers-uk.org. 

 

What is the GLCCA, and what will a Mayor do? 

 

The Mayoral election will take place on Thursday 1 May when all eligible residents in the Greater Lincolnshire footprint are asked to vote.  

 

The elected Mayor, along with the GLCCA board will oversee the investment into key priority areas which include driving economic growth, improving roads, infrastructure, housing growth and transport, and creating new job opportunities for residents and businesses. By bringing decision-making closer to local people, the authority will ensure that funding and resources are used effectively to deliver real benefits. 

 

With devolved powers and a focus on delivering results, every penny of investment will be used to maximise benefits for residents and businesses, enhancing already strong foundations for long-term success. 

 

Through the securing of greater control over funding and decision-making, Greater Lincolnshire will be better-positioned to build a stronger, more prosperous future - one where communities thrive, businesses flourish, and residents have access to the opportunities they deserve.
