I have epilepsy severe anixousty, and depression.
I am on standard rate living and high rate mobility as I can't plan a journey, I go everywhere with my husband.
I walk with a stick and not very far I have adaptions in the house for safety reasons I can't get disabled parking ticket for our car.
I am also in remission for cancer
Any advice

@anixous2017, I am surprised you can't get a blue badge with high rate mobility, most if not all people getting high rate mobility are granted, given a blue badge when they apply to their local council for one . What was the reason given for not giving you a blue badge?

Hi anxious
What points in the moving around catagory did you score ?
If you didn't score 8 points then you should apply to your local council who will carry out their own assesment for a BB.

There are two parts to the mobility element an only points in the moving around catagory help with a blue badge
The only option is to apply to your local council and see if they will carry out an assessment
