Organisational Blue Badges

An organisational Blue Badge can be issued to an organisation that uses an adapted vehicle to carry disabled people. 

Who can apply?

To qualify, the organisation must:

  • Use an adapted vehicle that is registered as a disabled class of vehicle with the DVLA.
  • Care for and transport disabled people who meet one or more of the eligibility criteria for an individual Blue Badge.
  • Need an organisational badge because it's not possible to use the Blue Badges of the individuals they care for.

Taxi or private hire firms are unlikely to qualify for a organisational Blue Badge as they rarely care for disabled people who meet the eligibility criteria for a badge. Taxi drivers can, of course, use a passenger's Blue Badge.

How to apply

Please send the following items to us by email to bluebadge​applications​@liverpool.gov.uk and tell us how the badges will be used:

  • a contact name and number
  • copies of the registration documents for each vehicle you plan to use
  • copy of your organisation's logo 
  • address of your organisation

We will then contact you to arrange a visit and, if your application is successful, tell you how you can pay. 

If you do not send the registration documents we cannot process your application.

Rights and responsibilities

The Department for Transport guide for Blue Badge holders explains your responsibilities as a badge holder, including how to display the badge and when you need to use a parking clock.

Your Blue Badge remains the property of the council and we have the power to withdraw it in some circumstances. We may also ask you to return your Blue Badge if:

  • your misuse of your badge leads to a relevant conviction
  • we are satisfied your badge was obtained by false representation
