Hi, my husband received a PCN while parked in a resident disabled bay which is allocated to his father, to assist him into the car and take him to an appointment.
He appealed but this got rejected and he has just recieved NTO. Please see both NTO docs and the appeal letter above .

Have I got grounds for appeal? I would have thought assisting my disabled father and attaching all evidence previously would have sufficed?

The latter being accurate and the former I was referring to.

How does this sound?

To whom it may concern,

I write in reference to PCN **********

I am making a representation that the alleged contravention did not occur and below are my reasons why:

1 – I was assisting my father who is a Blue Badge holder, and registered disabled at the address of receiving this PCN to board the vehicle.
There were no alternative spaces, bays or lines available for me to park, and not stopping here to board my father would have resulted in him not leaving the house.
2 – I believe the council has failed to have regard to my Fathers disability and their statutory obligation under the Equality Act 2010 to that the disability into account. The Council must fully consider my father’s needs and his inability to drive a vehicle. Therefore he depends on carers who use his permit. These disabled bays are for the sole use of people who are registered disabled which is what you have stated in the rejection letter, and me using this bay was for the sole purpose of transporting my registered disabled father.
3 – Under the council's policy, which your letter set out clearly and which is reproduced below, a Blue Badge was valid without time limit in the bay:
Council policy:
'disabled badge holders are permitted to park in residents bays without time limit

I was also in the process of obtaining the Blue Badge in order to transport the holder when the PCN was issued.
I am providing evidence to confirm the above and support my representation:
1) A copy of my father’s disability badge
2) A letter signed by my father confirming why I was parked in this disabled bay.
3) A copy of the disabled permit registered to my brother’s vehicle as he resides within the same property as my father.
