What are the criteria for a Blue Badge?
The applicant must be over two years of age. For children under the age of two years please contact the Blue Badge team on 01225 713002. People, who are in receipt of the Higher Rate of the Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance or the War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement, will automatically qualify for a Blue Badge. This also applies to people who are registered blind. For others with severe mobility impairments, a Blue Badge may be issued once an application form has been completed either over the phone or on paper. We may need to contact your G.P and other Health professionals as necessary.
