Free resident permits for Blue Badge holders

The Free Resident Parking permit is a residential parking permit offered without charge to Blue Badge holders. We offer this permit as a substitute to the Blue Badge to help prevent the theft of Blue Badge theft.

Blue Badge holders that reside within the London Borough of Islington are entitled to apply for a Free Resident Parking Permit. The Blue Badge holder will be eligible for a permit only if the nominated vehicle is their main mode of transport, and can provide evidence to prove the vehicle is registered to their home address.
