Norden No.1 / FY / 1,494 / Bridge and Chess Club, Richmond Road, Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG21 5TG / 1 / This property has a narrow door which means that those using powered wheelchairs are unlikely to be able to enter. There is no alternative entrance for powered wheelchairs. In addition, there are no reserved parking spaces for disabled voters and the ramp that has been provided is too wide for the door meaning that it cannot be used. In order to continue to use this venue, temporary signs need to be used on Polling day to reserve parking for disabled voters.In addition, thought needs to be given as to how residents could inform staff that they are in need of assistance when entering the building. The size of the ramp needs to be reviewed.
Norden No.2 / FZ| / 1,389 / Oakridge West Community Centre, Oakridge Road, Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG21 5SN / 1 / While this station is in the heart of Oakridge it is not well lit outside when it is dark. Although there are plenty of parking spaces available, there are no bays reserved for disabled persons.
The borough council owns this site, it is requested that the need to consider some additional lighting be considered. Temporary signs will be used on Polling day to reserve parking for disabled voters.

Popley East No.1 / GU / 2,266 / The Popley Spotlight, Chineham Park Road, Shakespeare Road, Popley, Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG24 9PB / 1 / This site gave rise to a complaint from a disabled person in the May 2014 elections. It is preferable that the election team use the hall rather than the staff room. The hall is accessible to all voters, the staff room is not. If the staff room does have to be used, suitable ramps need to be provided to the door and the kerb leading onto the footpath.

Election staff are aware of the need to watch out for voters who may need assistance.

Ashmansworth / EW / 191 / Ashmansworth Village Hall, Ashmansworth, Newbury, Berkshire, RG20 9SJ / 1 / There is a step into the premises.

Burghclere / EX / 1,020 / Portal Memorial Hall, Church Lane, Burghclere, Berkshire, RG20 9HX / 1 / The main hall is preferred as it has better access. While a ramp is provided for use, because of layout, it works best on the side entrance which is not visible to polling staff. The side door needs to be left open and clearly signed or, alternatively, clear signage put in place indicating how to alert staff to the need to open the door.

Pamber (South) / GQ / 607 / St Stephens Hall, Silchester Road, Little Loddon, Hampshire, RG26 5EX / 1 / Part of the building was unavailable during the May 2014 elections due to problems with the roof. While there is a car park, users sometimes have to reverse out onto the road on a difficult bend. The car park is gravel which makes it difficult for wheelchair users, those with certain physical impairments and pushchairs or prams, but the election staff can see all voters arriving so can offer assistance as required. There is no reserved parking for disabled users so signs need to be provided.

In addition, the path to the board room is too narrow for wheelchair users.
