Blue badges
About this service
The Blue Badge Scheme (formerly the Orange Badge Scheme) provides considerable parking concessions for people with severe walking difficulties who travel as either drivers or passengers.
The badge is issued solely for the use of the disabled person, however applications from the public will also be considered where difficulty in walking is intermittent.
You can apply online for a Blue Badge application or for a telephone call-back from a member of the Blue Badge team.
