Re: Blue Badge (CB1) question

In message <f870ck$se$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, peter king <peter.king@xxxxxx> writes

When applying for a blue badge (CB1) for a car one of the questions asks
about walking distance. Something like how far can you walk without help,
difficulty or pain etc. What is the maximum distance in yards to qualify
for a blue badge if the only disability is with walking (severe pain due
to worn hip joints and disks in the back).

Thanks.


The distance you should put down on the form is the maximum distance that the applicant can walk without severe discomfort.
