Some private websites charge a fee for advice and help with applications for a Blue Badge. These websites are not connected with us or the government, and do not guarantee a successful application. If you've been affected by a private website that has charged you a fee, you should report it to the Citizens Advice consumer service.
We advise residents simply to follow the advice and links here on our website.
Until 30 September 2020, we will not issue a penalty charge notice to anyone who uses a Blue Badge with an expiry date of 1 January 2020 or later.
You must apply to renew your Blue Badge before it expires.
We suggest you apply 2 months before your current Blue Badge is due to expire.
The cost of a Blue Badge renewal is £10. You will only be charged for this if your renewal application is successful.
You should apply online to renew your Blue Badge via the government's GOV.UK website.
