RESIDENTS of Evesham's Bengeworth ward are preparing to vote in the local by-election later this week.
Following the death of Cllr Stephen Selby earlier this year the Bengeworth seat on the town council was left vacant and this election will attempt to find a replacement for the former Mayor.
The three new candidates are Ron Stow, Independent; Stephen Webb, Conservative; and John White, UKIP.
