You can vote at the meeting in person. A poll is held on each of the resolutions put before the meeting and voting at the meeting is carried out using an electronic voting handset, which has recorded your shareholding at registration and provides instant voting results (subject to scrutiny) at the meeting.
If you cannot go to the meeting yourself, you can appoint someone else to vote in your place as your 'proxy'. This could be someone you know or, if you do not know anyone attending the meeting, it is usual to appoint the chairman. To do this, you need to complete the proxy card that is sent to you with the annual report/review and send it back to the Company's registrar before the meeting.
