Blue Badge Applications

A Blue Badge allows some disabled people to park closer to their destination, as they are less able to walk long distances or take public transport.

Eligibility criteria for blue badges is provided by the Department for Transport (DfT). DfT also process the applications, while we decide if your application has been successful. Find out who can get a Blue Badge on GOV.UK

There is a £10 fee for a blue badge and we'll contact you with payment information if your application is successful.

Apply for a blue badge

 

A badge will not be issued on the basis of a diagnosis of a particular condition alone.

A badge can be awarded to any individual who has an enduring and substantial disability, which causes them to:

be unable to walk
experience very considerable difficulty whilst walking, which may include very considerable psychological distress
be at risk of serious harm when walking or pose a risk of serious harm to any person when walking
The term 'enduring' here means the disability is not expected to improve to the extent that you would no longer be eligible for a badge within the next 3 years.

Your application and the required supporting evidence will be assessed in line with the above criteria.
