Loughborough MP Nicky Morgan has welcomed important and far reaching changes to the Blue Badge scheme which will see those living with mental health conditions eligible for disabled parking badges for the first time.
The Department for Transport has announced that from 30 August 2019 eligibility criteria for the scheme will be extended to cover non-visible disabilities where mobility is affected, including some types of autism and dementia, which have previously been ineligible for the often life-changing badges.
