Blue badge

After reading Cancer Research UK’s website my wife contacted North Tyneside Council’s Blue Badge Team to enquire about a blue badge, as I have started a long course of chemotherapy for my incurable prostate cancer.  The council officer stated that I was not entitled to a blue badge and that the information on the Cancer Research UK website is incorrect.  She is going to look at the website herself!

    Hi there ...

    It was on the morning t.v they are relaxing the rules for a blue badge ... maybe worth looking into .. 

    And whoever refused you a blue badge should hang their heads in shame... you keep fighting .. this day and age we have to fight for everything ..

    At my local supermarket I see every time young fit people using a blue badge .. I know not all conditions can be seen .. but when they screech up .. jump out ... and jog to the shop, the mind boggles ... maybe a photo I.d to make sure is the way to go .. on a couple of occasion 6 cars didn't even bother with any badge at all ...   rant over ...  

    But good luck ... chrissie  ; ))
