disabled parking slot on street

Hi

does anyone have any information on how to go about getting a disabled slot put in the street that I live on.

The council have said that they don't do them, I realise it is not for "my" use but for any blue badge holder, but I am not sure what to do, I know friends that live in other councils and they have had one put in, some have had to pay towards it which I don't mind.

I just don't know what to do to encourage them to install one?

anyone?

thanks in advance

    Ask at your local CAB or DIAL if you have them, if not your local council should have a Welfare Advisor, ask then for the procedure ...

    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.
