Polls Apart 2005 - campaigning for accessible democracy

Disability Action logo - links to websitePolls Apart Northern Ireland Needs You!

Can you spend 5 minutes when you vote to fill in a short survey? If you can - you can help make democracy accessible to everyone in the UK. At the last election 'Polls Apart 3' found that 69% of polling stations were inaccessible to disabled people.

"You had to go around to the back of the building to get a ramp access, this still had to be requested and there were no signs available to point in the direction of disabled access."

Polls Apart uses the evidence you give us to improve polling stations and make democracy accessible to everyone.
