Hi and welcomeThere are two ways to obtain a blue badge1) be in receipt of a PIP mobility award with 8 points minimum awarded in the moving around catagory2) you can apply directly to your local council which will then require an assessmentA blue badge has no relevance to motorbility. You will need an enhanced PIP award to qualifyBe all you can be, make every day count. Namaste
