supporting evidence + Blue badge was created by Jane
Hi, I'm in the process of submitting some further supporting evidence for my PIP claim and I was wandering if sending a copy of my blue parking badge (evidence another authority recognises my disability?) would be useful as evidence?
I'd like to know the current thinking on this.

Thanks,
Jane

Hi Jane

Yes, you can include evidence of your blue badge, but be aware that it may trigger extra questions about how much you drive and where you drive to. You are allowed to drive and claim PIP, but it is often contentious, so anyone who drives generally finds themselves having to explain what they do.

I can't currently drive and my husband takes me everywhere so its not a problem.
