Protecting the Blue Badge Scheme: Tackling Misuse, Supporting Communities

Webinar: 10.30 - 12.00

12 Nov 2025

Webinar

The Blue Badge scheme is a lifeline for millions of people with disabilities, granting them vital access to services, shops, healthcare, and community life. However, misuse of Blue Badges, whether through deliberate fraud or a lack of awareness, undermines public trust, drains resources, and restricts access for those who need it most.

Prosecuting Blue Badge misuse can be time-consuming, costly, and resource intensive for councils. Many authorities are looking for smarter, more efficient ways to deter misuse while still delivering a fair outcome for the public.

Local Authorities are on the frontline of managing and enforcing the Blue Badge scheme, but they often face growing challenges:

  • Rising misuse and fraudulent applications
  • Limited resources to investigate and enforce
  • Public pressure to ensure fair use
  • A need for consistent awareness and training across often large teams

This webinar will explore how local authorities can strengthen their approach to tackling Blue Badge misuse, while also ensuring the scheme continues to support the people it was designed for.

The session will explore:

  • The scale and impact of Blue Badge misuse across the UK
  • The challenges councils face in enforcement and prosecution
  • How awareness training for offenders can change behaviour and reduce repeat misuse

This is a unique opportunity for local authority officers working in:

  • Parking & Enforcement
  • Mobility and Accessibility Services
  • Community Engagement
  • Fraud Investigation and Legal Services

to come together, share experiences, and access a practical solution that helps protect the Blue Badge scheme for those who need it most.
