Do you receive Mobility Disability allowance? if so you should get a blue badge easily as your breathing would affect your walking. x

I've not applied for the allowance,i thought if you had more than a certain amount, it would be a waste of time. But I have got a Blue Badge on it's way.

Thank you for answering my question, I wish you well x

I have one since i have severe Raynauds in my hands, knees, and feet. I really only use intermittently in the winter. There should be forms online to get one and then you take it to your doctor then i mailed mine in. Good luck!!!

Hello Dawn, the above e-mail address will take you to an application form. The Criteria used to be could you walk 50 yards without severe pain on walking. If you could walk more than 50 yards without pain or difficulty you can still apply and your case would be considered. I do not know if the criteria has changed.

Good Luck
