About the scheme
Blue Badges help people with disabilities or health conditions park closer to their destination.
Some people can get a Blue Badge automatically and others may need a further assessment.

If you’re eligible, you can apply whether you travel as a passenger or a driver.
You can apply for a Blue Badge:

Disabled persons parking bay
If you have a Blue Badge, you can also apply for a disabled persons parking bay.
This allows you to park on the road outside or close to your home, with markings to show that the space has been reserved for a disabled person.
