Do I need to tell the DVLA if I have a disability or medical condition?

It depends. If you have a driving licence and develop what is defined by the DVLA as a notifiable medical condition or disability, you must let them know.  

A notifiable condition could be anything that could affect your ability to drive safely. They can include:

• Epilepsy
• Strokes
• Other neurological and mental health conditions
• Physical disabilities
• Visual impairments

You should also notify them if your condition deteriorates.

What is the Blue badge scheme?

The Blue Badge is a disabled parking scheme that allows you to park closer to your destination. The Government issued almost 900,000 Blue Badges between April 2016 and March 2017, an increase of 2,000 on the previous year.
