General election accessibility survey launched

Elderly and disabled people have been asked to share any issues they faced while trying to vote in an island's election.

The Jersey Electoral Authority is undertaking an accessibility survey with the aim of making improvements for the next island general election in 2030.

It said it wanted to hear from older or disabled islanders, along with their carers and organisations who represent and help them, whether they voted or not during the election held on 7 June.

The authority said it wanted to know what worked and what hindered voters so it can "fix the right things". The survey is open until 15 November.
