What do you think about Daventry District’s polling stations?
Daventry District Council uses a variety of buildings as polling stations on election days, from village halls to community centres, a chapel, and even the front room of a house.
It is holding a review to ensure the suitability of those venues and to make sure they are all accessible to all.

People wishing to make a submission are asked to consider the location of polling stations, the suitability of the building and the ease of parking and access.
The council would also welcome suggestions for alternative or additional venues.
The submissions will help shape any proposals for change which will then be the subject of a public consultation later in the year.
