I have just been diagnosed with RRMS. Haven’t applied for benefits as yet as I work full time and don’t need benefits. But I have had my blue badge application processed.
I didn’t think I’d get it without a fight or at least an assessment because I wasn’t on benefits.
So if you think it’ll help you to have it, then just apply. You never know.
Chat GPT did help me with the application.
Good luck.
I always thought that, while I could, the extra walking was good for me. I ended up applying when I was unable to get my walker in and out of the car in a normal space. The assessment is based on need not an award for having a particular disease.

It definitely helps to have my badge when trying to get parked at hospital for my infusion. I can’t drive myself there so being able to park in a disabled parking spot makes a huge difference when getting out of the car and into my wheelchair. It’s very frustrating when people abuse the parking bays.
