  • The City of Doncaster wards of: Armthorpe; Balby South; Bessacarr; Edenthorpe & Kirk Sandall; Hexthorpe & Balby North; Tickhill & Wadworth; Town; Wheatley Hills & Intake.[3]

Minor changes to reflect revised ward boundaries, including the gain from Don Valley of Tickhill and Wadworth in the south, and the transfer to Doncaster North of Barnby Dun in the north.
