At the Scottish Parliament election on Thursday 7 May 2026, polling places will have a range of equipment and support options available to support blind and visually impaired voters who wish to vote in person.
Spoken ballot papers are available via YouTube for the Clackmannanshire and Dunblane Constituency vote and the Mid Scotland and Fife Region vote to support you if you wish to use either of the two tactile voting aids which will be available in the polling place.
Text versions of the two ballot papers for use with text to audio apps or screen readers are also available by following the link given.
One is a new cardboard ballot paper overlay which fits exactly over the ballot paper.
The older plastic tactile voting device is available as an alternative. This must be fitted in place by polling staff.
If you would like to speak to someone in the Elections team about the support available to vote, about how to request a reasonable adjustment at a polling station or about anything else, please call 01259 452266 during office hours.
