For an organisation to be eligible for a Blue Badge, it must care for and transport disabled people and meet all of the following criteria.

The organisation must:

• be responsible for the ongoing care of disabled people​
• transport people directly, not through a third‑party contractor​
• use vehicles that are solely or mainly for transporting disabled passengers​
• transport people who would meet the eligibility criteria for an individual Blue Badge​
• use adapted vehicles suitable for disabled passengers​
• be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC)​
• have a clear need for an organisational badge rather than individual badges​
• use vehicles with tax class DPV or NHSV

You will be asked to provide evidence that the organisation meets the criteria when you apply.
