All Members are entitled to a Council issued device, such as a laptop and mobile phone,and this can be made bespoke for any disabilities. Members can request paper copies of agendas or other important documents, if they cannot use a screen for any periods of time.
Committees are held in meetings rooms, which are compliant with accessibility regulations. Full Council can be convened outside of the chamber if required.There is a room within the Town Hall for Members to work in, and this can be used at any time throughout the week when Town Hall is open.
