Hope this helps.Peck

Thank you will try. Have a nice day.

Ask your GP for cover letter either apply online and add letter as attachment or apply for it to be sent by post. Good luck

If it s going to be a long term illness rather than something that is horrible but more temporary it ascertain my worth a try. There will be some form filling and probably an assessment by a therapist to see how your problem affects your walking. As Hidden says it would be good if you can get a letter of support from your GP as it can make such a difference to the outcome. Good luck.x

I got my blue badge on line with my local council have the required point with being on pip had to post them proof

Thank you all so much

Hi I think all local authorities are different but here you can still apply even if you don't have PIP at enhanced rate. You will find the application on line and send any evidence but they might still send you to be assessed. Good luck I hope you don't wait too long for a reply from them. 😀X
