If you have a disability, you can take someone with you into the polling station to help you vote.  This might be a close family member or someone who is legally eligible to vote in the election.  You can also ask the person in charge of the polling station, known as the Presiding Officer, to help you fill in your ballot paper.  They will keep your vote confidential. 

We aim for our polling stations to meet physical accessibility needs as far as reasonably practicable.  This may include: 

• Disabled parking and ramps for easy access 
• Wheelchair accessible booths and voting booths positioned for best lighting 
• Chairs for people who cannot stand for long period

Service animals/assistance dogs are welcome to accompany you.

We have equipment available to help you vote independently and in secret: 

• Pencil grips 
• Large print copies of the ballot paper 
• Magnifiers 
• Tactile voting devices (which are cardboard overlays which assist you to make a mark in your chosen box) 
• Audio description of the ballot paper 

You can take your phone into the polling booth to use magnifier or text-to-speech apps, or the phone torch to improve lighting. 

You can listen to or download an audio file constituency ballot papers and regional ballot paper below. 

You can view easy-read guide about elections and how to vote on the My Vote My Voice website. 

You are welcome to get in touch with us in advance of polling day if there is anything you would like to find out about how we can support you to vote.   

Should you wish to give feedback on accessibility provision during your visit to a polling station, you can ask the Presiding Officer to pass on your comments, or you can contact the election office.
