As you have no PIP award then you won't automatically be entitled to a Blue badge, you will need to go through an assessment and send evidence to support your claim.The PIP award that ended in June won't help your new claim for the BB.0

Hi @Cornela, and a warm welcome to the community!
Are you in the process of renewing the award? Unfortunately, if you do not have a current PIP award then you will be unable to get a blue badge with this. However, some councils have other things which you can submit as proof.
This may be worth looking into.
Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help.0
