Misuse of a Blue Badge is a serious offence. A badge can be withdrawn if it is misused or allowed to be misused by others.
It is a criminal offence for non-disabled people to use a badge. If they do so, they are liable to a fine of up to £1,000.
To use the Bade the trip must be for your benefit only and you must be using the vehicle. You must never give your badge to friends of family to allow them to park free without you, even if they are visiting you.
