"If I didn’t have the card on, I would have been too nervous to ask for help.”
“When I was at Edinburgh Zoo, the staff saw I was wearing the National Disability Card with Invisible Disability Lanyard and they allowed me to skip the queue and provided me with all their accessible information.

FAQs
Is it possible to renew my National Disability Card prior to expiry?
Yes, you can submit an application for a new card a few weeks prior to its expiration to prevent any interruption, particularly if you have upcoming travel plans. The new card will be valid for two years starting from the expiration date of the old card.
Will my new card be recognised, and where?
Your card is designed for instant global recognition thanks to its prominent wheelchair symbol - meaning it’s easily understood by people who haven’t seen one before, abroad and where there’s a language barrier. Plus the card is officially accepted at 650+ partner locations. See where your card is recognised.
What documents do I need to renew my card?
We ask applicants to send us one piece of evidence that shows that they have a disability, such as a PIP letter, Blue Badge or doctor's letter. Read more about accepted documentation.
Why do I need to pay again?
The peace of mind you get from not having to explain your disability is invaluable for many card holders. We need to cover the cost of producing the card and administering the scheme, and many venues only accept proof of disability that is dated within the last 2 years, even if your disability is lifelong.
Based on the average UK household’s spending, you can easily make back the cost of your card, sometimes from using just one of our discount codes. The average UK household could save £100 per year on groceries alone using our discounted supermarket gift cards; £46+ per year on takeaways with discounted gift cards from a popular takeaway app; £434 on your next accessible holiday with a partner discount code; plus many more savings on pharmacy, beauty, mobility aids, clothing and more.
What if I didn’t use my card?
Since you first applied we’ve added hundreds of new card holder benefits, including new places to use your card, and new online discounts - there is sure to be something for you! You can now see what’s in your area on our website using our handy filters. Discover where you can use your card.
I don’t know how to use my card
There are three main ways to use your card: no more explaining your disability; get recognised and access carer tickets at venues; plus save money with our exclusive discount codes. Read about how to use your card.
