The Blue Badge scheme is for drivers or passengers who have severe mobility problems or are registered blind. The scheme allows people to park near to where they need to go. Adults, children and organisations may be eligible.
People who qualify can use disabled parking bays and get a range of on-street parking concessions. Parking is not always free or unlimited for Blue Badge holders, so be aware of local parking arrangements.
How to apply, check the progress of your application, or have your eligibility reviewed if you want to renew a badge that's expired, or is about to expire.
