Reddish South is an electoral ward in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport. It elects three councillors to Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council using the first past the post electoral method, electing one councillor every year without election on the fourth. However; in 2023 due to the boundary changes that year all three seats were up for election. The councillor that was elected but receaved the fewest number of votes would serve a 1 year term, the second place councillor a 2 year term and the councillor with the most vote a 3 year term.
It covers the southern part of Reddish, including parts of Heaton Norris and Heaton Chapel. Together with Reddish North it formed part of the Denton and Reddish Parliamentary Constituency.
