DISABLED people in Dartford requiring help placing their vote in the General Election should contact their council’s electoral services team.

Those wanting to vote by post are advised to contact Dartford Council now.

Residents needing to change their details on the electoral register should also get in touch.

The latest you can apply for a change to the register is 11 working days before the election.

Dartford Council’s electoral services officer Irene Stapley said: “There are several ways in which voters with disabilities can vote or be helped to vote within the polling station.

“Postal voting is also available to all residents who have registered to vote and may be particularly helpful for those who find it difficult to journey to a polling station.”
