Signs for counting venues for Local and General Elections

Once the polls have closed, a considerable effort will be made to get every vote counted. Central counting venues must have clear signage for ballot delivery and counting staff - venues tend to be large facilities such as sports centres or school halls where the standard wayfinding signage is inadequate.  Read more ...

Directional signs for counting centres

For the one night of the ballot count a small army of counting staff will move into a large hall and it is essential that temporary staff know where and when they are supposed to be. Communication and organisation is the key to the effectiveness of the count. 

Each ward has a set of counting tables, which need to be clearly signposted. Use sign holders that are stable and tall enough to be seen in a busy counting area. A4 and A3 floor standing sign holders are perfect for use in busy and crowded areas. The sign itself can be displayed in either landscape or portrait, and the frames take simple paper signs which you can easily print yourself. Each sign holder is double-sided and can be viewed at approximately 1.8 metres (nearly 6 feet) in height. 

Our floor-standing sign holders are reusable so are an excellent investment for this and future events. 

 

Table top sign holders for counting stations

Counting tables can soon become a sea of paper, so make sure you don't lose your essential information notices by using a simple tabletop sign holder. Just print your A4 notice and pop it in the frame in either landscape or portrait. If you want to display larger A3 notices, check out the range available at Table top sign holders   

 

Order early to ensure availability

Place your orders well in advance to ensure you receive your counting centre and polling station sign holders in time. Stocks deplete quickly, with the last shipping date for the UK mainland being by 2pm Monday 1st July for delivery in time for General Election Day. Scottish Highlands and Islands' last shipping date is 28th June.

 

Don't forget to have your printed notices ready

Please remember that you will have to have your notices printed - we only supply the sign holder not the sign! Our sign holders are designed to hold paper, so you can print your own notices, signs and posters and pop them in our frames ready for the big day (or night).
