Blue Badge support for injuries causing short term paralysis and disabilities.
Following an injury or during recovery from surgery you may have limited mobility and so need some of the help a Blue Badge offers like access to disabled parking. Currently anyone anyone with "temporary" conditions like this do not qualify. A short term badge should be introduced.
Follow an accident my leg was badly broken. The doctors were able to save my leg but I now have a frame holding it together. I was rejected for a blue badge as i was told I could walk 100 meters on crutches. I had to appeal explaining that the frame was no guarantee I would recover and without it I would not be able to walk at all plus it's very painful. While in this condition I need access to disabled parking so I can open the car door fully when getting in and out.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
