Disability registration

Hampshire County Council hold a register for people who have a disability. If you are registered then your details are stored on a confidential database and you are given a small yellow card as proof of your registration. It will not cost you any money to register.

The disabled persons' registration card is a quick and easy way of proving that the holder and has a significant disability and needs to use facilities provided for disabled people.
