If you're a young person who's registered to vote, why not encourage your friends to join you?
The Electoral Commission is working with the National Union of Students to encourage more young people to register, by sharing photos of their "voter cross" and using the hashtag #RegAFriend before 18th March.
To register to vote just visit www.gov.uk/register-to-vote to fill in the online form via desktop, mobile or tablet.
Anyone aged 16 and above can register but you can only vote once you reach the age of 18. This is a vital year to be registered to vote, with the EU Referendum on 23rd June. The decision made that day could affect everyone for decades to come.
Also on 5th May we will be voting for the new Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Commissioner.
You can find out more about the campaign here.
