If your application is refused

If we refuse your application, it is unlikely that you are currently eligible for a Blue Badge.If you feel that the decision to refuse a Blue Badge is wrong, you can request a review of the decision. The request must be made within 28 days of the date of receiving the refusal.

You must submit the request by completing our online enquiry form or in writing (by letter). The request must detail:

  • If you feel that you did not provide enough information on the application form, explaining what information was missing.

  • Why you feel that the decision is wrong.

We may ask you to provide medical confirmation of your disability / medical condition.

You will receive a response to your request within 28 days of receipt.

If we still refuse your application after requesting a review of the decision, this decision will be final. You can't make another application within three months of the final decision, unless your mobility changes significantly during that time.
