Hi everyone, my Blue Badge is due to expire in June and I've had a reminder for the renewal. I had my Ftf in February but no decision as yet although my report suggests that I will maintain my current award, my question is does anybody know if under the current circumstances whether there is an extension on the Blue Badge while awaiting decision letters?
Thanks

    @NannySue, hello I have not heard or read anything about the renewal of blue badges, may I advice you to contact the Blue Badge team of your local council who issued the badge for advice.

    Thank you wilko, I contacted my council and they informed me that due to coronavirus any badges with an expiry date from 1st January 2020 due to be renewed will be valid until at least 30th September 2020 and will be reviewed again then.No penalty charge notices will be applied.
    Thanks for your advice.
