Residents cast their votes yesterday as city council and police and crime commissioner elections took place.

With all 35 council seats in the Guildhall up for grabs for the first time, we’re all eager to find out which candidates have been successful.

The count takes place this afternoon (Friday, May 3) at Perdiswell Leisure Centre and you’ll be able to follow all the results as they are announced on the Worcester News website.

The election of West Mercia’s police and crime commissioner is this year in the hands of Telford & Wrekin Council.

Again, we’ll bring you the result as soon as it’s announced.
