Overview
Blue Badge holders are able to park closer to their destination either as the driver or passenger. Blue Badge is a national scheme that is open to individuals who qualify and organisations that care for those individuals.
It will cost £10 for a new, renewal or replacement Blue Badge. You can get your Blue Badge photo for free at the library (apart from Prestbury library). Some of our libraries operate an appointment system, please check before you attend.
If you live in Cheshire East you should only apply for a Blue Badge from our website. Be aware that other websites may charge you for the application of the badge as well as the cost of the badge.
Organisations that care for and transport people who meet the Blue Badge qualifying criteria may apply for one or more Organisational Blue Badges.
Please allow up to 12 weeks to receive your Blue Badge after we have received your completed application and all required supporting evidence.
Returning a Blue Badge
If you need to return a Blue Badge because it has expired, is no longer required, or the badge holder has passed away, you can do so by either:
- Taking the badge to your local library, or
- Posting it to our office at the address below.
Please ensure the badge is returned as soon as possible when it is no longer valid or needed
