Hi All

Finally got my Blue badge this week, its only taken two months to get here..but thank god, its made going shopping a whole let easier..

because i Dont get DLA i was not sure if i was entitled to one..but after enquiring, they just contact your GP to make sure your not lieing (as i Am sure it happens).

I am also I have my appeals date for my ESA so things are getting there. and I will take my badge with me as its more evidence that I cant walk far..


once this battle is over i will then apply for DLA..dont think i can fight everyone at once..one is stressful enough..

    Good news about the blue badge, I am pleased that it makes your life that little bit easier.

    Good luck with your appeal too.

    Nice one..
    Good luck with everything else too.
    And thanks, you reminded me that my badge runs out on the 23rd next month and I haven't had anything to remind me yet, so I have just rung them and they are sending a renewal form.. :grin::grin:

    I am glad it has come through - it does help, there's no doubt about that. I hope your town etc is better supplied with disabled bays etc than mine, although the ability to legally park on a single yellow line can be very useful. DD
