I was wondering if anyone has experience with a blue badge application for a "high functioning" adult?
I've been given the "risk in traffic" application form. And the first thing that is immediately apparent is that this is most certainly NOT "hidden disability" friendly.
The whole application process looks like it needs a major overhaul.
I get extreme anxiety and sensory overload when trying to park 2 inches away from other cars and strangers. I'll often be parking at the far reaches of the car park just to be away from other people.
Apparently I should be entitled to a blue badge. But nothing in this form suggests to me that I am.
I also need a "counter signatory" from a healthcare professional, excluding a GP of course. Because doctors are not healthcare professionals presumably. A social care or teaching professional.
I'm at a bit of a loss.
