Hi I've just been awarded enchanced rate pip. I've been told I'm entitled to my car tax free. Is there anything else I'm entitled to.

CEA cinema card. You get a carers ticket free. Valid in most cinemas. Card costs £6. You can get this with standard care don't need enhanced. Some councils will allow reduction on council tax but varies in different areas.

Remember when you get free Road tax your car is classed as a disabled vehicle. And is thus meant for the sole use and benefit of the claiment. So if your car is low tax band it may be wise to not take up free road tax if others use your car.

Is there anything else I'm entitled to.That will depend if you're claiming daily living or mobility, for free road tax then you need Enhanced mobility.If it's mobility and you scored the points in moving around part then you're automatically entitled to a blue badge. If you scored the points in following and planning a journey then you'll need to see the criteria of your local council because Enhanced mobility for following and planning a journey doesn't automatically entitle you to a BB.If it's daily living then you won't automatically be entitled to the BB and there's no free road tax.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.
