Worcester council loos for feedback on polling stations

Holly Clement 7th Aug, 2024   0

WORCESTER City Council is looking for feedback on the locations that are currently being used as polling stations in the city.

Worcester residents have the chance to have their say on the locations and its facilities.

Shane Flynn, acting returning officer for the Worcester constituency said: “We want to make sure that everyone in Worcester who is eligible to vote can exercise their democratic right in a place that is accessible for them.

“This consultation will help us to highlight and resolve any problems which might deter voters from visiting their designated polling station.

“If you have views on how polling stations in your area could be improved, or would like to suggest alternative locations, then this is your opportunity to have a say before the next election takes place in Worcester.

“We would particularly like to hear from disabled residents and people with expertise in access for people with any type of disability, to make sure our polling stations are open to everybody.




“Remember to state which polling district, polling place and polling station you are making comments about when you complete the survey.”

The first stage of the consultation started August 1 and runs for six weeks until September 12.


The review results will then be considered at a Council committee meeting later in the year.
