Finding out who your candidates are

As a member and supporter of the National Campaign for the Arts (NCA), the Museums Association has access to the NCA’s candidate search facility.

Send an email containing your full postcode to campaigns@artscampaign.org.uk and the NCA will respond within one working day with a full set of contact details for all declared candidates in your parliamentary constituency.

If you would like the names and details of candidates in other constituencies (maximum of three per request) please include the names of the other constituencies in your email.

This method of obtaining contact details will be available right up until polling day.
 
However, during the election campaign, your local Returning Officer will publish the Statement as to Persons Nominated, which is the final list of candidates who will appear on the ballot in your constituency.

When this is published, the details should be available from your local council’s website.
