Travel and transport

A Blue Badge allows people with severe mobility problems caused by visible and non-visible disabilities to access goods and services, by allowing them to park closer to where they need to go. The scheme is open to eligible people who travel as a driver or as a passenger.

You can apply for a bus pass for free travel when you reach the female State Pension age (whether you're a man or a woman), or if you have certain disabilities.

With a Senior Railcard you can get 1/3 off rail fares to travel across Britain.

If you or someone you know has difficulty walking or getting around (mobility), a wheelchair, scooter or walking aid might help.
