Secret ballots, Making friends

Available for over a year

Peter White hears how casting a secret ballot in the election was made impossible for some blind voters. We listen in on a secret recording from inside a polling station. And, loneliness amongst people with disabilities is rife, according to a recent report by Sense. Deafblind people in particular can find it very difficult to make and maintain friendships - we hear why and about what might help. Producer: Paul Waters.
