Overview

Essential Users Permit (EUP) Holders

If you’re an existing EUP holder we want to know your views on how the scheme currently operates and if you have any suggestions on how it could be improved.  

Carers

Whether you’re a paid or unpaid carer we’re proposing to introduce two new parking permits.

The two different types of permits being proposed are:

  • Professional Carers Permit – intended for those employed by an organisation or agency and who make multiple visits in a day
  • Personal Carers Permits - intended for those caring for family or friends on an informal basis.  This would apply even if you are in receipt of any type of carers allowance.

Why your views matter

Please take the time to make your views known as this will help us shape parking permits for healthcare workers and carers in Edinburgh.
