Hello Brian Collins I am another UK subscriber, on behalf of my father (aged 60, diag. 3 yrs ago). Welcome to the list! UK question: can anyone tell me the best place to find out about whether/how my father can obtain a disabled parking permit? I presume he would have to be registered disabled - how complex a procedure is this and how does he prove he has a lot of difficulty walking? (He does have another foot problem as well as PD, and it is the two together which give him such a lot of trouble that being able to park anywhere would make his life a lot easier.)
