Pushing the sleep power button does not hang up the phone. I just confirmed that by calling my office and when the answering machine answered, pressing the power button did nothing. It would appear that either touching the end call button with one finger and double tapping, or using the two finger double tap are the only ways to hang up the call if VoiceOver is on.
I am fairly sure Siri cannot help here. This would be a good thing to point out to Apple, both through Apple Accessibility and through the feedback form on their web site. Given their plans to make iOS 13 more useable for people with physical disabilities maybe they could do something about this.

What she’s just found is that, if the number she calls goes onto voicemail, she has no way to end the call! She can manage to single click or hold down the Home button, but the two-fingerdouble-tap is too hard. I hadn’t realised that it is impossible to summon Siri during a phone call. Does anyone know how she might end a phone call? Thanks Harry -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
