Polling Places and District 2024 - Review

Introduction
We have to review our polling districts and polling places for UK Parliamentary constituencies at least once every 5 years. We must designate a polling place for each polling district, unless there are reasons why a polling station outside of the district would still make sense to electors. We must make sure that polling stations are accessible and have reasonable facilities for voting. 
As part of the review the recommendations proposed by Newcastle's Acting Returning Officer (ARO) and a map showing the current polling districts and polling places are available here:
