Hi my godsons mum got a blue badge when he was 18 months as he relays on oxygen 24hrs a day in the form of a big cylinder . So mobility isn't the only factor. She got a mobility car on his 3rd birthday. Hope this helps. He's 4 in October.

hi my daughter doesnt rely on o2 constantly as her condition is mainly present during sleep however recently she has needed oxgen out of the blue and we have had to quickly connect her to it so always need it with us. we have recently had to spend £500 on a new pushchair as our old one could not fit our oxygen tank saturation monitor and changing bag in all at once x

Don't forget that if someone else takes your daughter out when she has her blue badge, they can use it while she is with them. The BB is portable and not specific to one car.

Good luck with your test x

I presume you are already claiming the disability premium on your child tax credits? (It's just that nobody else had mentioned it)
