Blue Badge Applications

Since the National Blue Badge non-visible (hidden) disability changes were introduced on 30th August 2019, Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) has seen a 10% increase in overall applications. 1000 of these were non-visible (hidden) applications.Image of handicap logo

During the assessment of non-visible (hidden) applications, HCC has found that those approved, and which met the criteria, were amongst customers with ‘moderate to severe’ cases of the following conditions: 

*Child conditions *Adult Conditions
Autism Dementia
ADHD Learning Difficulties
Learning difficulties Psychological distress
Anxiety Colitis
Down Syndrome COPD

*Please note the above list is not exhaustive

Having a certain condition does not automatically entitle someone to a Blue Badge. Customers must provide supporting documentation from a professional with their Blue Badge application.
