A summary of accessible Election 2024 Manifestos so far.
VODG, our members, campaigns we support, including My Vote My Voice, and Disabled People's Organisations (DPOs) have been calling for party manifestos to be published in accessible formats, and speeches translated into British Sign Language as a starting point to make this General Election more accessible for disabled people.
