Who can get a Blue Badge

A Blue Badge costs £10. Applications should be made online on GOV.UK.

If you are unable to apply online, you can download and print an application form.

Then send your completed forms and supporting documents by email or post:

email: bluebadge@bracknell-forest.gov.uk
post: Blue Badge Administration, Bracknell Forest Council, Adult Social Care, Health and Housing, Time Square, Market Street, Bracknell, RG12 1JD

If you are unable to apply online, and you cannot download an application form, you can ask us to send you one in the post.

A letter reminding you to renew your blue badge will be sent to you about 12 weeks before your badge expires.

Let us know if you move house, so that the letter goes to the right address.

We will not automatically send you a new badge when your current one expires. It is your responsibility to reapply for a new blue badge.

To renew your Blue Badge you need to reapply on GOV.UK.

These timings apply to new applications and renewals.

Your application may take up to 20 working days (4 weeks) to process.

However, we will try to process these applications as soon as possible.

Your application may take up to 40 working days (8 weeks) to process or longer if an assessment is needed.

As a Blue Badge holder, it's important that you understand your rights and responsibilities which are listed on GOV.UK.

You should only use your badge if you are driving or a passenger in a vehicle. Giving someone else your badge counts as misuse.

It is a criminal offence for you or anyone else to misuse your badge, and it can lead to a £1,000 fine.

If your badge is lost or stolen, contact the Blue Badge administrator.
