Blue Badge parking scheme
The scheme allows the holder:
- use of designated parking spaces
- in some circumstances parking on single or double yellow lines
- free parking at parking meters in some areas
The quickest and easiest way to apply is on-line. If you don't have access to the internet, it is available through your local library, or alternatively you can ask a family member, friend, support group or carer to assist you or apply on your behalf.
Your personal information will be handled in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). See our Blue Badge Privacy notice.
For Existing Badge Holders – If you are re-applying please take a note of your Blue Badge expiry date and allow nine weeks prior to that date for your Blue Badge application to be processed.
Please do not apply earlier than 12 weeks in advance of your current Blue Badge expiry date. This is because the information and evidence you supply needs to be as current and up to date as possible. Applications received earlier than 12 weeks will not be accepted.
