dont know if this is a silly question but I have HRC and HRM and use the M part for a car on the scheme, I also have a blue badge, my car is getting renewed in July and my badge runs out in July also.
With all these changes going on and medicals needed for just about everything now, will this mean I have to have a medical before I get my new BB?

Generally BB's should be renewed 6 weeks before expiry, some local authorities do a ' walking test ' most however do not.

At the moment you still qualify automatically because you're in receipt of HRM. Local Authorities have been reminded that changes to the scheme should not be made until they come into force.
