What Should I Do If My Application Is Denied?

If your application is denied, the steps you need to take depend on the type of application. Here’s what to do for different situations:

Blue Badge Application

If your Blue Badge application is unsuccessful:

• Appeal within 28 days of the decision by contacting the community rehabilitation team using the number in your refusal email or letter.

Housing Application

For a housing application:

• Request a review in writing within 21 days of the decision, explaining why you believe the decision is incorrect. Send this to housing@swindon.gov.uk, including your application number.

School Place Application

In case of a school place denial:

• You have the right to appeal the decision. Guidance is available in the School Admission Appeals Guide for Parents. It's recommended to accept any offered school place while the appeal is in process.
