Welcome to the latest episode of The Cov Pod, where we explore the recent changes to the voting process in the Coventry local elections.

First up, I talk to Liz Read, Electoral Services Manager at Coventry City Council, about the new requirement for photo ID when voting and the improvements in accessibility at polling stations for people with disabilities to ensure they are accessible to all voters. Liz discusses the importance of training poll workers to be aware of accessibility issues and how to assist voters with disabilities.

Next, I speak to Asraf, a poll inspector who has been involved in the voting process for the past 25 years. Asraf shares his experiences of overseeing polling stations and ensuring that the voting process runs smoothly.

Finally, I speak to Chris, who is blind, about the improvements in accessibility at polling stations for people with disabilities. Chris shares his personal experiences of voting and how the changes in the voting process will hopefully improve the experiences of people with disabilities. He also talks about the importance of continuing to make voting more accessible for everyone.
