Visually impaired voters in Exeter will once again benefit from extra support at polling stations, with audio ballot papers available for the elections taking place on Thursday 1 May.
Voters will be choosing representatives for Devon County Council and participating in City Council by-elections in Mincinglake & Whipton and Topsham wards.
Audio ballot papers help ensure that everyone can take part in the democratic process independently and with confidence. These recordings allow voters to familiarise themselves with candidate names and order before casting their vote.
The audio files can be accessed in advance below and will also be available to scan as a QR Code at polling stations for anyone who needs them.
