    Blue Badges have no impact on PIP claims I’m afraid. You can tell them but it won’t make a difference.

    Hi @skylark :) 

    Have you had a look at the PIP descriptors (pipinfo.net) at all? I'd recommend that you take a look, and see whether any of them apply to you. 

    It can be a bit overwhelming at first, but we're here if you want to ask any questions or hear about other peoples' experiences.

    Hi Skylark,
    Without knowing your intentions, I would highly recommend applying for PIP.  There`s a vast wealth of knowledge in this forum, from advisors and those who have already walked down the PIP path.

    Good morning all, just finished filling in my online pip form with the help of pip info. net, not sending it in just yet in case any more info is added
