Longleat concession

Options
We are planning on visiting Longleat next week during half term.

Cam some one please help - there will be for of us (2 adults 2 children) going. 1 child and 1 adult are registered disabled so qualify for the concessionary entry but can the other 2 people (1 adult 1 child) get on as carers?

We don't recieve carers allowance and are not registered as carers because my husband works.

    It's in their terms and conditions.
    Being registered disabled isn't really a thing though - if there's no blue badge, check with them about PIP/DLA awards or what else they would accept as proof. And I think it's unlikely that they would accept a child as a carer. Might depend on the age of the child.

    "Any guests able to provide evidence of disability (e.g blue/orange badge or similar) will be entitled to bring a registered carer free of charge per individual Longleat Ticket.

    To do this online, please select the type of disabled adult or child ticket that you would like below and select a second free ticket for your complimentary carer. Alternatively, you can purchase a disabled ticket with a complimentary carer when you arrive at our entrance tolls. You will need to present proof of disability to a member of staff when you arrive at Longleat."
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
  • Thank you it's the "registered carer " bit that confuses me as my husband isn't registered but does care for me and my son of that makes sense x
  • We have the evidence of disability just not "registered carer"
