One-third of council were up for election. No elections were held this year in Broadley Common, Epping Upland and Nazeing, Chipping Ongar, Greensted and Marden Ash, Lambourne, Lower Nazeing, Lower Sheering, North Weald Bassett, Roydon, Shelley, Waltham Abbey High Beach or Waltham Abbey Paternoster.
This is the last time a British National Party councillor has sat in the chamber following Pat Richardson's defeat in Loughton Broadway to the Loughton Residents Association. Former British National Party councillor, Julian Leppert (who represented Hainault on Redbridge Borough Council) won a seat in 2019 in Waltham Abbey as a candidate for For Britain.
Boundary changes
There was an extra election this year in Hastingwood, Matching and Sheering Village ward following changes to the boundaries of Matching parish, which annexed part of Moreton and Fyfield ward. The Hastingwood, Matching and Sheering Village councillor was elected for a three-year term only.
