In addition, you should also notify them if your condition deteriorates.

The Blue Badge is a disabled parking scheme which allows you to park closer to your intended destination.

You can get a Blue Badge if you have severe walking difficulties, are registered blind or have severe disability in both arms and drive an adapted car. The badge will be for you, but can be used by someone else if they are providing transport for you.

We have a number of insurance providers who will quote for disability vehicles with modifications. This means you’ll be able to use us to get in touch with someone who can help you find the right policy for your needs. So get comparing and see how much you could save!
