    Hi there 

    Blue badge allows you to park in disabled parking bays and I think on yellow lines 

    They last up ti 3 years I think as long as your PIP lasts that long 

    All councils are different and set their own rules and eligibility

    Hi there I have a blue badge I applied via my local council they said you need  Pip 10 points Plus for mobility to automatically get one so I had to send in proof and I was accepted I had to pay 10 pounds for it and it’s valid up till my pip is due to end . But every council is different hope this info helps .
