Blue Badge

At Steel Support we specialise in helping people complete the Blue Badge application and/or renewal. This is normally a local council operated scheme involving a government application form – a multi-sectioned document with often repetitive questions and uploads.

The Blue Badge scheme provides parking benefits for people with disabilities or health conditions that affect their mobility. It allows holders to park closer to their destination.

You can automatically qualify if:

  • You receive Higher Rate Mobility of Disability Living Allowance (DLA.)
  • You get 8 points or more in the “moving around” activity of PIP (Personal Independence Payment.)
  • You are registered blind.
  • You receive a War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement.
  • You have received a lump sum payment from the Armed Forces and have mobility issues.

You may be eligible if :

  • You have a long-term disability that severely affects your walking.
  • You have a mental health condition causing very considerable psychological distress when walking.
  • You have difficulty planning or following journeys (for example, non-visible conditions like dementia or autism.)
  • You drive and have a severe disability in both arms.
