    Hello and welcome, yes you can apply for a blue badge from your local issuing aurthorty. You will have to have an acessment by a ocupatiental therapist who will decide if you fit the criteria for a blue badge. Councils are getting very strict now so if you have any medical evidence to surport your application the better your chances.

    Hi @mbeaton, and welcome!

    You can apply for a Blue Badge on this page. Putting in your postcode will take you through to your local authority's application process. Good luck!
