Concessions
Free parking applies to blue blue badge holders, frequent attenders and parents of sick children staying overnight.

Disabled Blue Badge Holders: After your appointment at the hospital, enter your vehicle registration into the payment machine in the car park to show your payment fee. Scan the barcode on the rear of your Blue Badge Card. The barrier will automatically lift when you exit the car park

Frequent Attenders: People who frequently attend outpatient appointments (at least three times a month for at least three months) will be able to obtain a ‘one time reduction’ pass, in the same way as described above, at each visit, following confirmation by the clinic/department being visited. This is in addition to the free parking currently offered by the patient departmental permit scheme.

Parents of sick children: Parents or guardians of sick children who are staying overnight will be able to obtain a ‘one-time reduction’ pass following confirmation by the ward. Free parking will apply between 19:30 - 08:00 and can be for a maximum of two vehicles. The pass can be obtained from the General Office (or Saba lodge out of opening hours) and is in addition to the patient departmental permit scheme.
Where confirmation is needed for a ‘one time reduction’ pass, a member of the ward or department team will need to call the General Office or Saba lodge to give verbal authorisation in advance of the patient or visitor making the request.

Concessionary tickets for long term-patients and visitors
five-day tickets: £19.65
seven-day tickets: £28.05
monthly Tickets: £44.85
(If you need to buy a concessionary long-term ticket, you’ll need to ask the ward or department you are visiting for a form.) There are also a few ‘pay and display’ spaces near to the entrance to the Tower Block building. If you use one of these don’t forget to make a note of what time your ticket expires. We also have free pick-up and drop-off spaces close to the entrances at all of our hospital buildings, but don’t forget to check signs for time limits and, of course, only use a disabled space if you’re displaying a Blue Badge. There are also a few designated permit spaces for patients who need to attend hospital for long-term treatment. These spaces are free and next the department you will be visiting. If these spaces are available, we’ll let you know when you receive details of your appointments.
