Improve Parking & Access at the JR and Churchill Hospitals

Lorraine Setterfield

Signing because you wait weeks for an appointment and it's cancelled if you're late. Had trouble parking everytime I have HAD to go

Helen Harris

During the day, in appointment hours, it is impossible to get a parking space.

Rachel Spencer

The last thing on your mind is to worry about parking when all you want to do is get a family member to get medical help or to visit them!!

Catherine Highstead

The parking in both hospitals it terrible

Sue Mansell

There is never any spaces at the Churchill, then have to park along way. Have to leave at least a hour before appointment although I leave near. Always a very stressful day and if your elderly.

Tony Tranter

Nightmare when trying to visit a poorly great friend

Linda Lewis

My husband needs to bring me to the hospital - I am unable to get myself there.

Nicola Dixey

My mum is 93 and when I can’t park there is not much I can do as she can’t walk alone so we’re late for appointments which costs the NHS money

I work with a special needs little boy. On Oxygen etc. Even blue badge places can take almost an hour to find. My own appointments I get the bus. Too stressy to drive about for 30-60 mins.

Jeannette Wadham

I have missed a neurological appt at the JR after driving around for over an hr. I now never go for an appt without my husband who can drive around/wait for a space. He’s even gone up to the road by the manor waited there and I phoned him when my appt had finished. It’s not good enough to have this stress before an appt. I have tried the bus but it adds on to your overall time away from home which can be very tiring .

Faye Griffin

Our child has lots of appointments at the JR, where possible we cycle but often my son has severe abdominal pain when we travel in and the car is the only option. We have spent a fortune on parking at the JR this summer.

Parking is a basic need , hospital visits are stressful enough.

Patricia Curtis

Even with a mobility card it is still impossible to park there

Rupert Alexander

I take my 95 yo mother to the eye hospital at the JR very regularly. Parking is a joke. They've now put cones and barriers out to stop folk from parking between pillars, and are ticketing them if they move the cones and park there. Don't do anything to help, make situation worse, fine them. Contractors are also using the spaces for patients. The JR did have a temporary one story parking apparatus in place about 20 years ago at the back, so they can do it!

Carol parkin

I have a blue badge and cannot always use public transport. I live in Bampton and it's a 2 hour journey with bus changes. I Just needed somewhere to park. Journeys to J R often take 2 or more hours. Make more use of Witney hospital, consultants and test should be there.

Joan O'Fee

People who are in need of assistance or have mobility issues shouldn’t have to worry about the ability to get parked nearby!

Sally Hawkins

so difficult to park at Churchill

Geoff Sutton

It's crucial proper parking provision is made for patients at these tertiary care hospitals as patients come in from across the country, these are hospitals serving the nation, not just Oxford.

Flora McKenzie

Stupid idea.Not always appropriate to take sick children,dementia patients etc on bus.My husband had fall,bus transport not suitable.Got parking ticket .Do thes people coming up with stupid ideas live in the real world ? Some how I think not.

Supporter

My father has vision issues. Public transport is not suitable or close to where he lives
