Hi,
Doesn’t sound right to me. What reason did you apply? If you don’t automatically qualify then you will need to go through an assessment.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
I apply because I struggle to get my dog in and out the car but I got 12 points where your meant to get 12 points 😐
Kind regards -
It's very unlikely that you'll get a blue badge because of this reason. You mention 12 points but a blue badge isn't about scoring points.PIP is about scoring points. Do you have a PIP mobility award? if so did you score the points for following and planning a journey? If you did then 12 points here do not automatically qualify you for a blue badge. You need to have scored 10 points for descriptor E to automatically be entitled to a BB.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please.
