THE Polish Honorary Consular for the West Midlands visited Hereford to encourage migrants to register and vote at the upcoming European elections.

Councillor Fran Oborski met the founders of the migrant magazine, Here for All, and staff at Herefordshire Council Electoral Services.

"Community magazines such as Here for All have a really important role to play in encouraging EU migrants to play a full part in English society," said Coun Oborski.

"I’m also delighted to support the excellent work of Herefordshire Council Electoral Services in actively canvassing members of our migrant communities to sign up to the Electoral Services."

The European Elections take place on May 22.
