Hello, It would appear that no blue badge holders receive reminders of impending expiry dates. It can be argued that at the very least, blind people should get a reminder in their chosen format when blue badges, bus passes and disabled person's rail cards are coming up to their sell-by date, on the grounds that our cards are more likely to lapse because we don't have the luxury of independently reading the printed date on the cards themselves. You might be able to check the date with a little help from your friends or your technology, but neither of these checks are as straightforward as glancing at the card and thinking: "Gosh! June 2015! Better do something about that!"

My passport for example, I asked to have it Brailled and it merely says Passport. How imaginative. I now have my passport number writen on it in Braille which I did myself.
