Photo ID

Passport
Drivers License

These are the two main and best options

If you don't want to use either of those then you have to try your luck with this Citizen card.

I'd just take my passport and make sure to take good care of it, put in in an inside pocket in jacket/bag/handbag. No more likely to get lost than anything else and still cheaper to replace than a (modern) mobile phone that most people carry around.

I vaguely (yes vaguely) recall an incident when I was 18 going to a club with a group of friends. Suffice to say we had a rocking time, drank loads and were on the dance floor making shapes. Suddenly the music stopped the MC blasted out some incoherent nonsense and then the club exploded into a mass chorus of laughter.

What’s the coo my mind stumbled and my mates pointing and laughing brought my attention to a massive projection of a static image of some idiot, ho ho ho …. Hang on that’s me?!

Mates had pickpocketed my passport, handed it to the DJ suggesting they had found it. These jokers had rigged up a camcorder or some such, generally to catch all the gurners, and pointed it at my passport photo.
The night proper elevated into wonderment when I went up to collect it.
*sighs*
 
No idea about this, really, but if you are registered blind are you able to apply for a blue disabled person's badge? They have photo ID and are pretty official-looking these days. I have no idea if they can be used as ID, although they should be as it's fairly convoluted to get them.
 
Not many options apart from the extortionate cost of a passport. You could always create a fake passport I guess, not as though doormen would be able to tell the difference.

You'd be surprised most of us get pretty good at it ;)

I've just had a look at the portman group card and noticed it's a PASS scheme card which is causing you problems so your only option really is a passport. I do some work in Stafford and driving licence and passports are all we accept.
